I had a similar situation not too long ago. The fact that I ordered small sizes to test, then find out it's NLA or wouldn't be in "for a few weeks" was getting out of hand. The supplier I was using was 1/3 of my scent list. So far I have been able to replace most of them. I'm going to go back to this supplier for only a few of my MUST HAVES and make sure I buy in bulk so my orders will be few and far between. Chopped my 1/3 down to just 3 or 4. 

According to TESS that trademark is DEAD.

So it's Indiana Candle Supply we are talking about? Hmmmm...I order from her all the time and I have never had a problem with anything or out of stock things....and all her oils have always been very good for me....some of them really exceptional like apple strudel.

Yes, they were for me too, until I couldn't get what I needed. She has VERY good oils. My most favorites were Cranberry Zucchini Bread, Serendipity and April Fresh. She said she wasn't going to carry the April Fresh anymore, but I see it's back...... I already made a replacement for that.

I just went on Indianna Candle Supply  site + I don't see where it says the Orange Chiffon Cake is out of stock ? Did I misunderstand you about the company ? 

OCC was available, it was several others that were not.

She won't tell you anything is out of stock until a day or two after your order is placed. I can't work like that.

It's not out of stock. I'm just replacing all of her scents that I currently carry.

The last 4 times I ordered, she was out of at least 2 scents, so I had to cut my order short and re order when it came in.

Of course this means paying shipping again.

The last time this happened, I just had to give up and find replacements for all of her scents that I carry.

I have to be able to place an order and know that I'm going to be able to get what I need.

Yes, that is correct. I have been able to replace everything except for Serendipity. I went with a regular Zucchini Bread and made my own Cranberry Zucchini Bread and I was able to find an Orange Chiffon Cake that is very similar. There were several others as well that I found comparable, if not even better, replacements for.

It was a supplier from Indiana......I was quite disappointed because I had just ordered a bunch of samples, and had I known she wasn't going to get anymore in, I wouldn't have even tried them out. I have been able to make some close replacements with my other 2 suppliers, but it was just the mess of having to go through all that which disappointed me. Especially at THIS time of year.

Hi all! First time posting. Happy to be here!

Anyways, I had 3 main suppliers that I have used over the past 15 years.

Last week while replenishing my oils, I placed an order with one of my suppliers and she informed me that she only had a little bit of some of the fragrances I needed and she didn't think she would be getting more in.

This supplier had about 1/3 of my current scents, so I had to scramble to find replacements from my other 2 suppliers.

Has anyone ever had this happen to them?

I can't say I didn't see it coming because the last 3 times I ordered, there was always 2 or 3 out of stock and I got "I don't know when it will be in".
