SOAPFREAK Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I'd be in for a coop and definately want the princess & Bobbie Brown Beach fo! Who knows what else???I had a whole pound of BBB for sale on another forum. Maybe your the one that bought it from me?I love Royal Aromatics fos too. I have lots from them. Floral Musk, Ocean Fresh, and Amber African Green are a few of my favs. Buttercream is a good one too. It would be neat to have a co-op. I wish I would have ordered some of they're essential oils before they sky rocketed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I love to try this company out bu I need to know that the Premium quality Designer F/O. If the quality is awesome, I can spend $100.00 easy Where are they located? What state? This will be a total bummer is they don't accept PayPay. Not that I'm looking for another supplier but if I can check out out for quality F/O Great Fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire and Ice Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Do they accept PayPay? Fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindsaycb Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 No they don't accept paypal, but I just use my debit card & transfer the funds over. They don't charge you until its ready to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Thanks very much. I guess I'll use my debit card when and if I order from them which should be around next month. Fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtybirdsoaps Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Which one does everyone buy? Value, standard, or prem. grade. I have to admit I've only bought a couple scents from them directly and I bought standard then I bought scents on the classies and have no clue what grade they were.

DeJae Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 A co-op would be great, is it still being considered? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 I hope so, otherwise I may just place an order myself to try them out. I am curious about what grades others who use RA oils recommend though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzeyez Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I order most of my oils from RA. Megan is who I speak with when I call as well. When you call them ask about the different grades. Some of the grades are pretty much the same and they will let you know if you ask.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Well I plan to buy all preimum quality because I'll be dealing most with designer scents howver I have to find a really great Balsam fur or blue spruce scent. Plain pine just don't do it and the blue spruce Peaks has is great but way too light in my soy!Fire I'd love to see a coop too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizbizzyb Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 A co-op would be great, is it still being considered?I believe so - contact CindyM about it.....woo hooo!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOAPFREAK Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 I order the premium because it is stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowded House Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Has anyone else seen the reviews on the scent forum website? They are all pretty bad... it's making me nervous about ordering from RA after all. I hope they are exaggerations but......Are you talking about scent-forum.com? I didn't notice that they got a lot of bad reviews, on the contrary they seemed to get quite a few good reviews (what there were of them for RA, anyway; there's tons unrated).I've tried their Sweet Musk and their Sweet Milk for shampoo and lotion bases and both are really, really good. I'll be moving on to candles here right quick with what I have to see if they're a good crossover for that, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 No I was referring to www.scentforum.com didn't realize there were two different sites. On this one they have only 3 stars and a bunch of complaining about how it took weeks and weeks to get thier stuff. I know that the RA website says 7 days but I can't wait months for oils... their reviews just made me nervous.Oh nm just checked out your site same thing. And while they are guests they are still negative reviews IMHO. In fact all of them are guest reviews but one... I don't know! Still nervous!What is the longest you've had to wait for an order? A week(ish) isn't bad.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowded House Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Every oil I've bought from them so far has been off the classies here. I did place an order with them Friday night (after hours) so we'll see how that goes. I'm happy to update as things progress, though.

Sharon in KY Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 The most I have had to wait for oils is 2 weeks 14 days but usually it's about a week 7 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Yeah, I read the reviews too. No matter how good their oils are, if Customer service and shipping suck, they are not worth it! Yet I still want to try them at some point. I guess if I like their scents, I'll purchase in bulk and buy less often! It's too bad though if Customer Serive and shipping orders out is a hangup for them! Fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scentsme Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I just got samples from them & they couldn't have been nicer, emailed me within 24 hours of my emails, got them within a week. No complaints here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Woman Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Hi,I have dealt with RA for a long time. There customer service is AWESOME. When I first started dealing with them I would order, send a check to them and have my order within 1 week. The most recent order I called in however took me two weeks to get. I called them and they said that it could take up to 14 days to get the order. I don't like waiting that long but the scents are AWESOME. I have been making candles using there scent for years, now I am trying them in soaps! The most recent order I placed (the one that took 14 days to get) I tried Aribian Sandalwood, and OMG what an beautiful scent. This one is definately a keeper.All I can say is give them a try, I am happy with there oils. I don't think I have any from them I don't like.Hope this helps,Devil Woman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abbiepql Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Better than 65% of my line is made up of RA's oils and they perform wonderfully for me - have for almost 6 years. I have gotten some that are not what I thought they would be, but that is why I order samples. I order in bulk and they give great discounts the more you buy so you save lotsa money especially if you can use the standard grade. I only upgrade on two oils and that is because the upgrade was what was recommended and it worked. Other than that I have always gotten the standard grade and they throw great at 1 oz per lb. in my soy/bw blend. Customers service is awesome and yes at times I have had to wait up to 10 days, but normally I get my stuff in a week. I am getting ready to do an large order for the fall, if anyone wants to join me, you are welcome - I guess I could do a co-op if no one else wants to do one. Just let me know.

lindsaycb Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 How much are you ordering to get a discount? I'd be interested in knowing that. I asked and didn't really get any confirmed price if I were to order in 10+ lbs, etc.I don't mind waiting for the oils. They really do smell fab.

Abbiepql Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 How much are you ordering to get a discount?You get $1.00 off per lb. over 5 and then another over 10. I usually order over 5 so I end up at most being between $9 and $11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtybirdsoaps Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Well I'd definitely be in on a co-op if someone does one. I LOVE THERE F.O.'s and there's so many that I have to order Please keep me informed if someone is seriously interested in doing one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
