NiksWaxNWicks Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) This is why we can not afford to buy FO's up here in Canada from anywhere local!!! Keep in mind 500ml = 1lbThese are a few price examples:Neroli FO Select Size:15 ml - $5.5050 ml - $11.50100 ml - $16.54500 ml - $56.461Litre - $95.77Mojito Fragrance Oil SELECT SIZE:15ML - $4.5050ML - $8.00100ML - $13.25250ML - $24.00500ml - $41.75Yuzu Fragrance Oil SELECT SIZE:15ML - $4.5050ML - $8.00100ML - $13.25250ML - $24.00500ML - $41.75Now you tell me... isn't that crazy??? We are better off paying the shipping, duty, and US!!! Please please someone open up a division of a huge FO Superstore like AH/RE or NG in Canada!!!

LynnS Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Yes I have to agree you do need a supplier and if the price is right they could make a BIG profit.U.S. is lucky to have so many FO suppliers. Where I live there are 3 major suppliers within 45 minutes but I also buy online. Not wax or jars but other things. Wish you LUCKLynnS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celicagtca Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 You're not kidding Niks!!!! That is why I purchase 99% of my oils from the states because even after paying shipping, duty and customs, I'm saving myself so much more money than purchasing from some Canadian suppliers at $30-$40 pp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitn Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I so agree , it is ridiculous what it bumps the cost up to . Once I get my soap business totally set up I am looking into supplying FO's here . I almost started this before the soap , but I love making the soap to much .

RichardLOZ Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Wow, thats even way more expensive than we pay down here in Australia. I think that our dollar is about the same value against the US dollar as your is, so at the moment buying from the US for us is at least 30% cheaper than buying locally, and that includes the shipping.CheersRichard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celicagtca Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 (edited) Yes...New Directions is a little bit cheaper on some oils but have you checked out the price in Canadian $$$ for D&G...http://www.newdirectionsaromatics.ca/dolce-gabbana-type-fragrant-oil-p-1492.htmlor the US price per lb.http://www.newdirectionsaromatics.com/dolce-gabbana-type-fragrant-oil-p-1487.html Edited November 6, 2009 by celicagtca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
