Holy crap, $40/lb? For Goex?
I just picked up 6 1lb bottles of Schuetzen 2Fg and 2 1lb bottles of Schuetzen 3Fg for $25.99 per bottle. Schuetzen seems to be somewhat available. I like it. It burns very clean for a BP.
Unless you just don't want to pay shipping or hazmat, you need to put yourself on every "notify me" list out there. I've been very lucky doing that. I got a notice two days ago for Federal Muzzle Loader 209s and bought 100 of those. Got a notice yesterday for Federal 209As and got 1,000 of those. And I got a notice today that Blackhorn 209 was in stock and got 2 bottles of that.
