bulk grain order--NePA and Central NY

I'm trying to set up a group bulk order with Wheat Montana. We'd need a minimum total of 5000 pounds for the truck to make a local stop. Their products include flour, wheat/rye berries, pinto and navy beans, and a couple types of rices. They come in a variety of sizes...some in 50 pound bags, some in pails where there are oxygen depleters so the ingredients will last 60 months by their estimation, and in cases.
If you are interested in getting a copy of the order form with prices, delivery prices, etc. please post here or pm me. If the pm is full, wait a day or two and try again...or tell me in a post that it is full. If you decide to order, you'd have to pay me as the organizer, before the order is placed as I'll need to send them one check or give them my credit card.
These products would be good for storage, stockpiling, etc. I received some of their products in a group order in 1999 (Y2K) and was quite pleased.
I'm located 40 miles north of Scranton, only 4 miles off Interstate 81.

I'm interested but I just bought 150 lb of flour yesterday so I'm a little bit tight on space. How much of an order are you looking for and when do you plan to place it?

I have just asked them to send me a price list as I couldn't deal with the Excel list that they sent (I'm not very computer savvy, or at least not Excel savvy).
Most of their products come either in 50 or 25 pound bags, in 45 pound pails or in 40 pound cases.
I wouldn't be able to place an order until I have the minumum poundage (5000 pounds), plus a week to collate the orders and for checks to clear, and then once placed, they say 3-4 weeks for the order to be delivered.
If you are interested, leave your email address and snail mail address here or as a PM.
