Sales were lite in the eastern spruce lumber market yesterday. Fill in from the reloads highlighted much of the business that was transacted. Delivery was key on getting the orders, which they could manage more efficiently. With prices at already low levels, the mills were reluctant to take even lower numbers on material they could not deliver until next year. New orders for them were few. Eastern U.S. mills stood a better chance of getting business because of their closer proximity to the market but the selection of items from them were quite limited.
