kandlekrazy Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I need Dragon's blood desperately and AH/RE's is the one I like best. Why can't I just order it and bite the shipping charges? NOOO I have a cart full of new scents, so far I haven'tpushed the purchase now button! In my mind I need to justify those high shipping fees.

pcbrook Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Oh I can so relate to that! I have done the same thing! I try to wait until I actually need other things to help justify the shipping costs but sometimes that doesn't work so good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Yeah I only need 2 that I buy from them. Really don't use that many from them but maybe I can replace some that I don't like so well from other suppliers. Wish they had Twigs & Berries!

TallTayl Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I keep building and rebuilding carts. In the end, the single bottle or two with shipping is still more economical, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappeur Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I really like their oils and need to get off my duff and order some. Yep the shipping is horrible but if I get enough quantities, it should justify the shipping. Trappeur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put it all in a wish list yesterday, managed to eliminate 2 that were so-so in my mind and today I'm going to order that wish list! Really hoping to eliminate acouple of other suppliers who I only get 1-2 from. AH/RE does have some really great oils and they work well in C3.

Belinda Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 It's such a shame there isn't one or two suppliers that we could get everything we need from! Wouldn't that be wonderful! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GailC Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 (edited) It's such a shame there isn't one or two suppliers that we could get everything we need from! Wouldn't that be wonderful! Maybe, but then we couldn't justify buying more new fragrances from a supplier to save on shipping. There's no way I can buy one bottle of fragrance oil. I do tend to get carried away though. I remember when a friend requested Midnight Jasmine. Well I found it at Cierra Candles....and wouldn't you know, if you buy $100 worth, you get free shipping. So that Midnight Jasmine cost me $100. BUT.....I found out that Cierra Candles has some great fragrance oils, and also sales ever so often. So it was worth it.

Daisymay66 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Yeah totally crazy! I think we all do the same thing to justify the shipping cost. And I think they know it! Shipping shouldn't be that high! Gas I'd cheap now!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 When I order my FOs I first check my list of FOs I use. If I need one from a particular supplier I check to see what other oils I use from them, or, what other products I use from them. That way I can order what I already use. If I don't need anything else then yes I bite the bullet and order that one thing in a large size if I can. It wastes a lot less money then loading up the cart with products I don't need or use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 ^^ what she said. I usually keep the shopping carts ready to roll online at the supplier. When i run low on something i add it to my account cart. After a while i just re-order once, trying for once or twice a year. I have accumulated so many things i will never use just filling up a cart to make shipping make sense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end, the single bottle or two with shipping is still more economical, lol.I do that all the time too.....lol...then you get emails from the companies saying there are things in your shopping cart...is there anything we can help you with?I want to tell them, oh thankyou, but I'm waiting for your sale! lol.....and they never come....most of them...lol Trappeur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappeur Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 (edited) The ones I had great luck with Kandlecrazy with c3 are: Birthday cake....(definitely get)....Toasted MarshmallowThe Apple and Pumpkin one.....love that... I know there are more, but that is all my brain can think of at the moment. I've looked at Dragon's Blood from so many suppliers and thought of ordering....but that name just doesn't do it for me.....lol Trappeur Edited December 24, 2015 by Trappeur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved all my stuff from cart to wish list so it wouldn't disappear or email me. So far haven't bought the stuff but the more I thinkabout it I need to test more of their fo's anyway since I'm stuck on 2 of theirs. What I really need to do is go back and try to find my notes as I've purchased a bunch from them before anddon't remember what I used for candles/melts and what I used in B&B. I may have already tested some of the stuff in my cart! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a Dragon's Blood fan myself but I have a lady that buys 24 melts at a time (about every 2 mos)so well worth it for me to carry it. Others buy it as well. Now, I have smelled it in soap and loved it and the lady who made it got it from AH/RE so same one. I do buy their Rooibos Red Tea but it's because I like it, neversells very well...slow moving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have already tested some of the stuff in my cart! Me too! I have just started using 'wish' lists on certain websites. Now I wish all sites had them. They save time and help people like me who can be forgetful of that one item they need. Best of all, you can start your shopping list, come back and add, then come back when you are ready to buy and the list is still there!! How smart is that?!!!
