Does $20 sound like a Decent price for 25 pounds of Cherry Wood Chunks?

Not a bad deal, not sure how close you are to the Monroeville area but there is an orchard/farm there that I buy all my wood for, oak, cherry, apple and occasionally maple, great prices too!

It really depends on many things and whats available in your area and how hard it is to come by different types of wood

If you're in an area where you have access to those woods, get a chainsaw and offer to remove certain types of trees for free. So far I've removed a hickory, 2 apples, 1 cherry, and have 3 more cherries to remove. That's only in a period of about 2 months since I posted the ad.

Unfortunately I am not in an area with a lot of fruit trees (that aren’t located on farms) or other wood smoking type trees for the matter… I was going to Home Depot & Lowes for my wood, but they rarely, I mean RARELY, have anything other than Mesquite & Hickory… I need some lighter flavored woods so I looked around online and saw the 25-30pound box of Cherry for $21…
