Coarse Coir Starting Mix?

[Greatgardens]

If any of you have used Burpee Super Growing Pellets, you've probably noticed how coarse the Coir is. It is basically little chunks or pellets, rather than the fiberous strands that one usually finds. Those pellets are really a great product, but are quite expensive.

Is anybody aware of a source for this coarse type seed starting material in bulk/bagged as opposed to in the netted pellets? I've looked at quite a few alternatives, and have yet to find something quite the same. I know that I can add perlite and increase the coarseness, but that is not what I want to do.
