Did Ace stop selling Wicked Good Charcoal?

I bought from them using "site to store" all last summer, and just opened my last bag yesterday.  Figured I'd order another hundred pounds or so, but can't find it on their website now.  

Back to Walmart Royal Oak looks like, since free shipping is hard to find. Anyone else noticed it's gone from their site?

    WGC is currently in negotiations with Ace to continue carrying it.

    Ah gotcha, thanks for the info.  Might just get some Royal oak to hold me over till the decision is made.  Any link to keep posted on the negotiation?

    No. I have been in communication with WGC personally. That is what I was told. Apparently, someone else heard that they might have an answer next Friday.

    Buy direct from the store if you can guys.. From what ive been told, the store does not get any benefit if you purchase site to store. I think it has to do with some being individually owned.

    I tried this and the store told me it didn't matter.  It was probably around my second big order, I just mentioned when I picked up the load that next time I would just order through them to help locally, they said they didn't care either way.  I took it as strange, but never tried again.

    I usually buy it from online and have had it shipping to the store for free more then a few times. Since a few more people were doing the same my local ACE started to carry it (and it was cheaper than the online price). I have 8 bags so I am set for a while -- I hope its either offered online again or if not I hope I can still order it from the store (someone said to just go to the store and order via the UPC... not sure it will work if WGC and ACE are in some dispute)...
