well it depends on many factors.
what's its grade? fertilizer, stump remover, analytical, etc
is it hard for you to find it in your country?
before the ban/restriction i bought 5kg of KNO3 on ebay for 15$, but not for 15$ i can buy maybe 500g

It is expensive.

Is it too expensive ? I dont know. How much do you want / need it ?

here as stump remover (Fairly pure) it is 14 dollars for a pound, 20 years ago a 50 pound bag of fert grade was 30 bucks, Ammonium nitrate was 25 dollars CAD

SO like others said, with out details it is super expensive and cheap simutaniously

Depends on your location: e.g. in Germany you can't buy pure KNO3, and there you can sell it for that price. In the US it's available as stomp remover pretty easily and can be had for 5 bucks per kilo
