tripsis Posted February 1, 2010 I'd like to get a bottle or two of palo santo essential oil from this site. It is quite expensive, although not nearly as bad as some places, but it looks to be a more ecologically sound and sustainly harvested product than any other site I've seen. Shipping for one bottle is US$29.60, a price which is completely unreasonable to me. However, that shipping cost remains the same for 10 bottles and only goes up to US$34.35 for 20 bottles. So the economies of scale become more favourable. So, is anyone interested in getting a bottle or two to make shipping more reasonable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hebrew Posted February 1, 2010 yeah i will chip in for a bottle or two. let me know costs and bank details etc if you go ahead with it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted February 1, 2010 Great, will do. Thought you might be interested. They are US$18 a bottle. I've enquired as to whether they can do them any cheaper for larger orders. I'll see if there's anymore interest, as it'll make them much better value with shipping the more we get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hebrew Posted February 2, 2010 thanks mate, any other oils they offer i will give the site a good look at tomorrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted February 2, 2010 They've got heaps, I'm tempted to get some others. The have agarwood essential oil from plantation, but it's very expensive ($50 for 1/6 dram which is approx. 0.5ml). Also have sandalwood essential oil from plantation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hebrew Posted February 3, 2010 did i send you some agarwood? its lovely stuff but like i said elsewhere very expensive. i think i better just stick with the palo santo oil for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted February 3, 2010 Yes, you sure did, it smells amazing. Thanks mate. I agree, it's far too expensive. Half a ml is a pretty tiny amount when you think about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted February 6, 2010 I'll give it two more days, then work out the numbers in this thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted February 8, 2010 Alright, so just to double check numbers before PMing details. VelvetSiren: 2 bottles ThunderIdeal: 1 bottle ferret: 2 bottles Is that correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted February 19, 2010 Alright folks, order placed today. Should take 6 - 10 days to get here. Unfortunately (for me) the prices for the oil went from US$18 to US$20 a bottle, costing me another US$22 more and effectively killing the saving on shipping that was being made. Ah well, shit happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hebrew Posted February 19, 2010 so do you need some extra cash for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderIdeal Posted February 20, 2010 will transfer a few bucks at some point down the track Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted February 20, 2010 Nah, it's seems too petty to bother about it, it's just annoying how prices go up like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_e_ Posted February 28, 2010 damn, bummer i missed this. Have been buying some from india which is vastly more expensive, and likely to be of dubious ecological nature. has anyone done any research into bio-activity or synthesis pathways with this oil? It smells like liquid gold and i have been curious as to what goodness is within. in-joy the aromas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted February 28, 2010 Arrived today! Just need people's addresses and I can send it all out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
