  1. Just a few typos on the home page. Did not go any further due to lack of time.
  2. Two best selling ones are Drakkar and Green Irish Tweed in CP goat milk soap for me.
  3. I ordered from Scentsationals also and their shipping was half as much as candlewarmers for 3 more warmers. I have a booth at a craft mall where I sell candles and they accepted that address as a brick and mortar store in case anyone else sells from a craft or antique mall. And I told them it was a craft mall and I rented booth space.
  4. The packing list is on the outside of one of the boxes. Mine was on the end of one.
  5. When I ordered the ones I did not receive were listed as in stock. They were the fall leaves and the one with the cross. Glad I ordered replacement bulbs becasue they do not use the screw in kind that you can buy about anywhere. There are two prongs that twist in. They look nice and I will see this weekend if I can sell them.
  6. Received my order today. Everything arrived in good shape. Was charged for 8 illumination warmers and the box only holds 6 and I did not get 4 warmers I had really wanted. So shipping turned out to be $38.42 and I got shorted two warmers. Not a good way to start off but I like the quality of the ones I received. If they credit my CC for the missing two I will be happy. Already contacted them so we shall see.
  7. The shipping notice says 3 boxes at 27.5 pounds. It just shows a total on my cc which is $8 more than what the total was for the warmers without shipping. we shall see on monday.
  8. Finally got billed for the candlewarmers. Unless i am not getting everything I ordered, they only charged $8.00 for shipping and i know that isn't right. weight is less than what the 18 warmers should have weighed also so i am sure something isn't in the box. they are in Texas and should arrive on Monday.
  9. I checked my CC and paypal and neither show a transaction from them.
  10. I ordered on Sept 2 and received an automated email confirmation. Have never found out what the shipping is and my shipment is in transit as of yesterday, Sept 14. I have not been billed yet either so I still do not know what the shipping is. Strange way to do business. My account history on their site says my order is complete and it lists shipping as $ 0.00. I am sure that is not right. Anxious to get the warmers though. I need them for a show in another week. This will be perfect timing.
  11. O.K. I have an over abundance of 6006 so got all excited when I saw somebody making tarts with it. I don't want to do anything with wicks other than Tea lights so I tried it. If I freeze them they come out , otherwise it did not work. Don't think I want to tell customers they have to freeze their tarts to get them out of the clamshell or portion cup. Back to the drawing board.
  12. First year I bought an EZ up. Very hard for me to put up and take down. It broke trusses frequently. I repaired them again and again. I still believe I bought a lemon EZ up but others at my shows have had problems with braking trusses too. Bought a cheap First up from Wal-Mart just for the frame to use for inside shows. A breeze to put up so I tried it at an outdoor show. Perfect. the canopy top has a silver lining and I do not get sunburned under it like I did with my EZup. I use the EZup sides on it and the same weights I used with my EZup. Have never broken a truss even when a neighbor's tent blew away and landed on top of mine. And I had extra weights and offered them to the neighbor and she stuck her nose up at me and informed me she did not need them. Yeah right. You should always use weights and most shows I go to require them. I am not going to be responsible for damaging someone else or their property. I have been to shows where I just took the canopy top off because it was so windy. I do about 14 outside shows a year so I am not using the canopy every weekend so the cheapie First up works for me. Plus I love the air vent in top.
  13. Thanks for posting this. I had forgotten I have a wholesale account with them and I loved the picture you posted. I have been making melts for gifts and I have quite a stockpile so I might as well sell along with my soap. So I ordered a couple dozen warmers and a replacement bulb for each. I paid $35 for a scentsy one just because it was "ARMY" for a gift. Don't think they are worth $35.
  14. I think I read on here somewhere that Aspen Forest was like Elements Citrus and Balsam or Balsam and Citrus. (can't remember the exact name).
  15. I CP'ed Champagne Snow Showers and it worked beautifully in goat milk CP. So far, 100% of his oils have been easy to soap and the scents are strong and very nice. I am sure I will evenatually hit the one that seizes on me but so far so good. I used a lot of Bert's oils and need replacements so I am going with this company for now. Although I did stock up on my favorites with the bulk buys from Bert. Second - I did not see a brag only a statement that a FO was a dupe of another from NG. Simple fact. If he had not listed it as a dupe someone would have complained too.
  16. I used Champagne Snow Showers (TYPE) in a cp goat milk soap yesterday. No A no D. Used 1 oz PPO and it behaved perfectly and smells great. That is my third oil to use in GM CP soap and it is so nice to have a new FO that doesn't seize or do other strange things. I will continue to buy these oils for CP soap as long as the prices don't go sky high and maybe even then for my favorites. My other new FO from an established supplier seized and I will have to rebatch, which I hate.
  17. Their website is probably set up to tag them best sellers when a certain amount is sold. Those two FO's were "on sale" recently and probably became best sellers even though they are clearance items. And why does it matter?
  18. I also like and sell a lot of Red Sedona in CP soap. Sunshine seized on me twice so I just HP'ed it and it still sells fairly well for me. Not pretty though but many of my customers are not interested in beauty apparently. Just the scent. Love the almond and shea - That is my only soap I use shea butter in so I can keep it straight. My only complaint is when I really find one I love and it sells, she may not offer it anymore.
  19. I don't have a very refined sniffer but I don't detect citrus. Mostly sage and then the mint comes through.
  20. I soaped two of the scents today with excellent results. No acceleration from either and I used 1 oz of FO per PPO. Also made goat milk soap. CP Coconut Lime Verbena and Purple Sage and Mint. The Purple Sage and Mint is one of my favorites that I bought. Sure hope it smells as good in the cured soap.
  21. I soaped the English Ivy Morning and it is a week old and smells great. Looks good too so I am hoping to take it to my August market in four weeks and see how the cusomers like it. I haven't soaped any of the others I got yet. I agree that Mr. Missy wasn't a scammer just a lousy businessman and I am still hoarding the Cedar Patchouli that everyoneof my customers loves in CP soap. Getting close to the last of my stash though.
  22. I ordered on Wednesday evening and the oils just arrived. They smell great OOB and I ordered pounds since I make soap. I am off to the soap kitchen to make some new soaps. The pound bottles have childproof lids that did not leak and they have labels with the name of the company, address, phone number, name of fragrance and their website. Guess the samples are the ones with the magic marker labels. Plus they were in ziplock bags with styrofoam peanuts. I thought I was paying for regional shipping since it was cheap but it came in a medium flat rate box. My favorite was a cheapie on special called English Ivy Morning. I love it. I sure hope it does well in goat milk soap cause I am making it first.
  23. I sell both but my goat milk lotion outsells the lotion sticks by a huge margin. I don't even carry the lotion sticks in the summer due to the heat.
