I havent bought from them yet but have talked to them on the phone. $365 a pallet which is 2400 lbs. Blaschak nut or rice anthracite. BOSSERT FIREPLACE SHOPPE 608 987-3837, BUS HWY 151 SOUTH, MINERAL POINT, WI. Probably about as good of a deal as you will find in the area. He does deal in stoves too.

I buy a few bags [stove coal to burn at parties] a year from the FDL guy - nice fellow to buy from
If you compare the FDL cost of bulk bit coal to NG its slightly less per Million BTU

ant-tracks coal is far to over the top
then consider--- you still have to haul it out of FDL to ??? and once home -> deal with solid fuel
In my world that's not enough to justify and you would be better served spending your hard earned cash on conservation vs conversion
your mileage may vary - these are just the voices in my head speaking out
