[TheForge] Pure Iron

[Frederick Faller]

If you read the text carefully, she is only talking
about shipping costs. She says in the next paragraph
that she had attached an Excel spreadsheet with the
cost of the iron, depending on the "size in stock". Is
it possible to distribute the spreadsheet that came
with the original quote or at least list a few of the
common sizes that B'smith's use and their cost per
tonne? This would help us get a view on what it would
cost.
