I always work with timber by the cubic foot & your plank is 1.125 of a cubic foot, I wouldn't want to pay above £50 for it. Always remember to start low & haggle hard

Well done Alex, I'm sure you will make some nice things out of that. You will also benefit from your experience of negotiation in other areas of your life.
