  1. Wow I thought I was the only one. I had a virus from hell on my laptop 3 weeks ago. And on March 3rd started getting calls from CC companies. Every credit card, debit card etc was compromised. Well over $10,000 but luckily it was caught in time. But I haven't ordered any supplies except for TCMS and I pay when I pick it up.
  2. My iPhone automatically configures the most websites to be mobile friendly. If you touch the menu button on the webiste you are looking at it gives you all the pages from the site and it also has a couple extra buttons that say "Mobile Site" or "Full Site". It makes it much easier to navigate and to see the website contents.
  3. I know, I love their oils but the last year their prices keep going up and up. I will have to order a sample... Looked at Oregon Trail but did not see a Ginger Lime-could it be called something different? Plus they look to be in the same price range as Elements, add in shipping from the West Coast and it will be $$.
  4. Who has a great Ginger Lime that is very close to Elements. We love the one from Elements but its starting to get pricey. We just ordered from them and its went up to $24.99/lb Has anyone used the one from Milcreek? We do order some FOs from them. Any suggestions?
  5. We order quite a bit from them and I don't think the shipping is that bad.
  6. I believe they are a publicly traded company, so they have to satisfy their stockholders.
  7. They don't show shipping until it is shipped out. If you order $300+ they cap the shipping at 15% so it is much easier to calculate. Not sure if that is for all US or not, but I think it might be for people east of the Mississippi. Last summer I ordered about $180 worth of warmers and the shipping was around $70+. Not sure if the 15% shipping cap will be all year or not.
  8. Its a percentage of the sale plus a fee per swipe, like 30 cents or something. I think its 2.5% to swipe and 3.5 or 3.7% if you key the card in. so its not bad, you just have to make sure you don't go over the $1000 a week limit.
  9. Square changed their hold policy last month, before they changed it, it was if you charged over $1100 (i think) within 30 days they held the amount over that limit for 30 days and then deposited it in your bank account. They changed it to $1000 per week. If you charge more than a thousand a week the remainder is held for 30 days. You can apply for an increase, you need to: 1. bank or merchant statements with at least three months history substantiating this need 2. invoices or contracts with vendors or other trade references 3. consent to a credit check (as a last measure) (We know because we contacted them about an increase. So we may do this, after all of our research it does have good rates without monthly fees.) Its good for shows etc, but we are going to do a couple wholesale markets, etc and most businesses cannot wait 30 days for the remainder to be deposited since alot has to be re-invested.
  10. I have been wanting to order some of their coffee FO's but haven't gotten around to it...would love to hear if anyone has tried the coffee FO's.
  11. When we started testing soy we tested 444, 464 and 415. I thought I would like the 464, but the 415 worked better and have used it ever since-and that was the one I almost didn't test, glad I did. You might want to test other soy waxes and compare the results.
  12. You can also rotate your candle 45* ever so often, that will help also.
  13. I see that AH/RE has a new Honeysuckle & White Patchouli. Might have to give in and order a sample on my next order.
  14. We use glass containers, but when you search for containers you should look at where you can get it close to save on shipping.
  15. we have a website but use Auction Inc's cart that includes a shipping calculator. So I do not know too much about paypals shipping. The reason we went with Auctions Inc was after alot of research it had more accurate shipping.
