Georgia Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I closed my biz in 2009 and have just been a hobby candle maker since. I do an occasional craft show, but nothing big. I haven't bought wax in a few years and realized I needed some 1343 for pillars. It's almost $110 delivered! I could pick up at The Candlemakers Store if I didn't work...pick up 9-3 Monday thru Friday. Sheesh! I'm pretty sure the last case I bought was $70 and that included shipping. If I wasn't so addicted I would give up this very expensive hobby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samandkennasmom Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I'd find a friend to do my wax pickup! :0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I understand! I closed in 2009 til this past year also. I was shocked, but was lucky enough to find a small supplier for my wax and jars within driving distance (an hour). If this supplier goes out of business, so will I.

QTsmum Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Try living in Canada!!! Add $100 for shipping. It's utter insanity. I'd have to sell 8 oz candles for $40! Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Well you know Georgia ... buy in bulk and it's still an OMG! Sticker shock LOL! We wish we had the space to go pallet, but we don't so we do this 11 case thing and that barely gets the price down to tolerable. I can remember when this wax was like $45 a case and less. We pick up our wax or otherwise we might have axed our interest forever ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
