There may also be people out there who know they aren’t conducting the correct method o f sale Also, m ore people might be in terested in purchasing firew ood this year as a supplemental heating source in the wake o f potential utility rate hikes.” There is also some important paperwork that consum ers should know about "Be sure to get a completed receipt for your purchase of firewood,” says Cooney “The receipt needs to include the name and address o f the seller, your name and address as the purchaser, the date o f the d elivery, the q u an tity delivered in cords, the price per cord, the total price, the identity or species o f the w ood and any quality re p re se n ta tio n such as ‘se a so n e d ’ made in connection with the sale Receipts are important to both the buyer and the seller and they provide very useful information when following up on complaints.” Anyone unwilling to provide a receipt or those who try to sell firewood in units other than in cords might actually be selling you a bill o f goods It could be a tip-off that they are out to shortchange you. ODA does not receive an overwhelming num ber o f com plaints regarding firewood, but it’s something that happens each year Since last October, the department has received 18 firewood complaints Most were valid com plaints o f short measure Misrepresentation of firewood is covered by the Deceptive Trade Practices Act and can resu lt in prosecution by the local district attorney or action by the Oregon Department of Justice In the past, the Justice D epartm ent has levied fines for weights and m easures v io latio n s in Oregon related to firewood sales. You can learn more about firew ood sales by visiting ODA’s Website The M easurem ent S tandards Division has its own page with a section dedicated to firew ood purchases. In addition to information on the legal requirements o f selling firewood, you can obtain other useful facts such as the heating value o f various species of wood that might be purchased. The internet ad d ress is: oda.stateor.us/msd/ programs/fire html Purchasing firewood is like any other business deal The buyer needs to pay attention and take an interest in the matter The bottom line for consumers is to be alert duri ng firew ood transactions and don’t be afraid to rep o rt any suspicions to ODA’s M easurem ent S tandards Division at (503) 986-4670.
