Obenauf's - Leather Preservatives

[Giles]

Maybe for direct customers, but not for distributors/retailers.

And even if they did, if they are quoting us USD200 to ship this parcel within the contiguous US, then I dread to think what they would charge us for shipping to UK.

We get amazing rates from UPS and FedEx, far better than any of our current suppliers, we always organise shipping on our own account.

If Haraki organised shipping to us it would cost about USD16 per item.  We use UPS and it works out at about USD3.20 per item….

I think people in the EU would be happy to pay that extra cost per item, as Obenaufs LP is virtually impossible to get in Europe.

I too hope the good people at Obenauf's will make their mind up so more customers abroad can enjoy their products.

[Giles]

They made their mind up.

They ignored my emails, trying to explain what they were doing was essentially levying a tax on their own product and just sent the fucking stuff to our US address anyway…

[Dion]

Damn, sorry to hear that. Who would've thought it's such a hassle to deal with them.

[Giles]

I guess every other retailer in Europe who tried to stock their products…..

There have to be many similar options for bee based leather conditioners, like this one from the Germans. https://www.smartpakequine.com/mobile/pt/10820?utm_source=cpc&utm_medium=google&utm_content=shopping&utm_campaign=nb_shopping_barn_gifts&utm_term=Tack Room Supplies&gclid=CjwKCAjw5ZPcBRBkEiwA-avvk3vqyEunTPS4wpV0lPKhIQVsj4Xl-snZXkbjRFNARnS_r1nb00

That sucks to hear that they are so terrible to work with. On a better note however, I have been using the HD LP on all my White's for years now and the stuff is amazing! I treat my boots whenever the look like the need it, but mainly just once in the fall and generally again in the midst of winter. It is really great to reseal the edges and the welt stitching. I wipe down new leather laces with it, too, and it helps make them a bit more pliable. Great stuff!
