Small private mills will do small runs of #1 & select, for a cost, I agree. But any of the larger mills will be exporting..

#2 is great for certain things, but #1 & sel have the straight grain that I need to keep 8x8 posts that are 20'+ long straight. You will get more twisting & bending with #2 & below.
