Yes, and they would rather get 1/4 cord for the same price as 1/3 cord because they get more wood. Simple, 4 is larger than 3.

I just saw an ad on Facebook Marketplace selling firewood. 1/2 cord @125.00, full cord @275.00. That new math tends to confuse me.
Amazon is famous for this. I have to check every time I buy something in qty there. The last time I ordered led workshop lights there the 4 pack was 25% more than buying 4 singles (same product, same page)

I have run across this too - order one piece at a time is cheaper than 2 packs or more.

Another tricky thing to watch for - you can get 5% off this item ..... and you order it, but then you wanted another - there is no 5%. IF someone else orders - they will get the 5%. AND if you order multi items, you only get 5% of the first one!

I use Duck Duck Go rather than Google. If I am searching for a product, DDG will not find eBay which usually has the cheaper price plus free shipping. I have to make another search and specify eBay.

My wife likes to use pet names for us. She has been calling me lately Prigozhin. Now she wants me to call her Putin....
