Anyone picked up a bag of Royal Oak from Argentina or Brazil?

I just bought a bag of RO lump the other day. After seeing this article I checked my bag and its made in the good ole US of A. Im slightly bummed.

I wonder if it's some 'good ole' stock from the Georgia plant that was closed down. Wish I could get some of that. I posted a concern earlier this week about this year's stock of lump. There are some good brands out there, but the shipping is just way too high for individual size orders.

Tom,

A quick search for Do-it-Best hardware stores in your city, showed that Dixie Lumber and Hardware belongs to that chain. They carry or will order 20# bags of RO lump for around $12. The SKU number is 800279. I buy from a DIB dealer during the winter when nobody else has any. It comes with their weekly order and they don't charge me shipping.

I don't understand. Your stuff was made in the USA and the whiz rates that better than the South American stuff. Why would you be bummed?

I feel fortunate to be able to easily get lump around here, Tom. And when I go "up north" the True Value hardware store always has a bag ready for me.
