  1. You just have to keep a constant eye out for it. Also the Facebook marketplace is good too. Some people just want it gone. I am reorganizing my room because I have stuff stashed here and there trying to find more room for it all. There are deals to be found. I might not get any one week but then get 3 the next. I stay away from expensive ones. Some people are wanting their space back lol so you jump on it. You have to be constantly looking as you never know when it will show up but I figure the ones I can't get aren't meant to be. I do want others to get great deals too. eBay has some often but we careful. Some are very old. I stay away from those.
  2. I hate lavender vanilla lol but many people love it. One of my daughters loves it and can't get enough. The other one hates it. I use the silicon cupcake liners for my harder wax but use aluminum cups with the wax made in them for my softer wax.
  3. What about if someone wants to combine shipping on eBay? Can't they claim they didn't get it all? Is it not a good idea to combine it?How do you make sure they don't make a claim?
  4. That is ridiculous and sounds like they were just a scammer. I hate not having other things in my pictures but read if you have props in the picture and the buyer complains you have to give it to them. So I am going to have boring pictures.
  5. I'm sorry to hear this happened but am thankful you told us. I've been debating on whether to make separate listings or not. Now I'm going to make separate ones after reading your experience. I also read not to put any other products but the one I'm selling in the listing. Even if I word it as one item the customer can say they thought they were getting all of them. They need to learn to read.
  6. I like a different scent a few times a day. Just save the melt for another day.
  7. I just checked. They want more for the wax, taxes (not their fault on taxes lol) and the shipping is cheaper but they are the same price total as Candle Wic BUT Candle Wic has the free oil lol and I refuse to put my card number since they get hacked and don't worry about it.
  8. I am just seeing this. I used 4625 with 4627. I am going to make soy Scoopable with my soy wax. I bought some very cute shovel spoons in bright colors. Not the see through spoons. I don't like those. These are very nice. Making this week so can cure soon. Would make great gifts or stocking stuffers. I have miniture bows for them too lol
  9. That's my kind of coconut lol not a vanilla fan but love coconut.
  10. My bookshelves are everywhere to the ceiling. I don't have room to sort by company. How do you remember what scents you have? This is the only way I can remember and find anything.
  11. I love their fragrances. I don't have a ton of them but have a few. Can't remember what scents off-hand. I sort my oils ABC in totes on bookshelves.
  12. Thank you all for answering. I have no idea why I never got notications that you all responded. I forgot I made the post. It just showed up in new things to read.
  13. I love spice but not that one. I'll have to try that one from CW. My kids love apple.
  14. I am not a huge Apple fan but love it sometimes. I'm glad you found one you like. I don't see the hype in Apple Jack and Peel do you? It's crazy popular and I hate it lol
  15. I'm definitely going to make an awesome description. Already sorry you said it was no fuss no hassle. So I'm definitely going to give that point on there lol I feel mine up in those kind of things and the clam shells I'll fill up and make a smooth top.I can't stand when people sell their clams in the little cavities and not fill them up to the brim. I think it's wrong because it's cheating the customer. I definitely don't advertise it as 2 oz. because that is not right I agree.
  16. You are right. It is no hassle at all. And soon it will be no hassle for me either lol I'm definitely getting a roaster. That will help so much putting the whole block of wax in there. And not getting all messy and wasting time. I saw a lady on eBay getting $3.00 each and sold a ton. Hers were the regular round plastic 2 oz size. Those melts only weigh 1 oz. Of course the fees have to be paid. So I'm thinking they will pay more for mine lol I'm trying it this weekend. Local will be cheaper though.
  17. Autocorrect ugh lol should say just for themselves. Not set. I give free stuff alot but one lady I gave her 8 free melts and her friend too. Wrote me and said they loved it could they get more for free! I sold 2 things on eBay but I need to put more on there. Very happy with it and gave me great feedback. Spankee lol I haven't put mine yet but it definitely wont be $5 that is ridiculous. I don't know what to put. That's what I'm trying to decide this week. I have almost 500 of them ready for sale. I gave a few away and they love them.
  18. You are definitely doing better than me lol I will get there. I haven't advertised much yet. And my little town doesn't help. So onlit is where I've been working on.
  19. Wow you are a genius. I'm doing that when I get more wax. I don't have a heat gun yet though lol will a hair dryer work? I just saw and answered where you aren't in full production right now but you still do great. Why do people order so much just for them set? Or do they resell your candles? I hope not. I don't like that. I've had people want me to lower price so they can resell. They told me they wanted to do that ! I was very upset. I mean really? I am not doing all this work to sell cheaper so someone else can profit. If they pay my price they can resell it. Iwon't be happy but I can't stop them. But to sell cheap so they can profit? No way. That is a lot of nerve. Do you have to thaw before melting?
  20. Wow that's a great deal. Do they have 4627 wax lol I'm sorry you are having back issues. I know that is very painful. I don't have a bad back but have back problems from being a woman. I have a bad knee and 3 bad feet from a fall almost 3 years ago. So it hurts every day. I force myself to do things. Which everyone does with pain. I hate hurting lol
  21. I'm glad you are doing so well. I will get there. I know it takes time. Is that businesses that buy so much at one time? I don't want to do wholesale. It's not that I can't pour the 25 pounds. I can. It's that I need to sell quick to keep buying the wax lol I'm going yard saling tomorrow to buy stuff to sell to buy more wax. I have 850 packaged melts ready for sale. Trying to take good pictures. What size roaster fo you have? Do you know? I didn't realize there are so many sizes. 14,18,20
  22. I wish I could melt 25 pounds a day. I want the money to come rolling in lol I know I need to be patient. Do you get a better shipping price if you order a few boxes at a time? I will try to get one this week.
  23. I have never ordered from Peak. I buy their expensive stuff cheap in destashes lol I can't afford their prices. I heard the dupes aren't as good but never tried it. I want the Buttermints but trying to get it in a destash lol I am running out of room and have to get more creative on where to put all this oil lol so I can get more soon.
  24. I don't have one of those but see those at yard sales brand new very often lol can you keep heating and reusing the wax? How long does it take to melt 25 pounds? I'm a newer business. Sounds great though.I need one. Is it just as safe as a presto? It would be so much easier. Right now I have to spend about 20 minutes to get sticky to fill a 8 pound presto. Way too time consuming and a mess lol
