I got my sand for the 400g more than a year ago from a local nurseries. I called them today to see if they can order some for me. The manager told me she would try. But to order it, she will have to order a truckful with like 10 pellets, something like 20 bags per pellet. Any how, it is a sh1t load. So I told her I will need 20-40 bags.

So lets have a head count.

I'll take at least 2 bags, maybe 5.

Would love to see the price on this baby to mine it and bring it up from down south. What price did they quote you? Also, I am pretty sure a pallet is 120 bags. If the price was right, I'd take a pallet.

It is a pellet, not a pallet Jim.

I think I paid $8.00 for a bag more than a year ago. You want 120 bags?

Main Entry: pallet
Function: noun
1 : a wooden flat-bladed instrument
2 : a lever or surface in a timepiece that receives an impulse from the escapement wheel and imparts motion to a balance or pendulum
3 : a portable platform for handling, storing, or moving materials and packages (as in warehouses, factories, or vehicles)

You had me thinking I was saying it wrong all this time.
