I have been offered  some hard wood supers with the  incentive  that
they will last longer than  pine  supers that  last only  2 -3 years
in  our environment.
 
I would be interested to know  whether the  group thinks that  hard
wood supers that  "should last " 5 - 10  years would be a better
investment for the  hobbiest and if so  how much  more should they
pay.
 
Supers cost around $8 - 10  Australian dollars in commercial
quantities. and about $12 dollars from the specialist suppliers.
 
What are your thoughts on this
 
 
Thanks
