Just an update on the larger bottles of thinner.....
Apparently the 200ml bottle has been available since late last year.
Had an e-mail from Alex Vallejo saying that he had an order for my supplier that he was going to contact them to see if they would be interested, as he didn't know they didn't have it.
I then got a call from my salesman, with his boss conferenced in, asking me about the conversation.
I told them that I just mentioned in passing to Alex (they seemed surprised that I had his ear), that a larger bottle of thinner would be nice. They had no idea there was one, and said they would bring it in, and asked how many I wanted. So, I have 12 bottles of 200ml thinner coming at some point. When I asked about price, I braced myself for impact, as the 32ml bottles are like $5.25, so I was expecting the 200ml to be pricey.
$12 retail.............
Obviously a case of being more expensive the less quantity you have in the bottle. 17ml is $3.50, 32ml is $5.25....makes sense.
$12 for 200ml, doesn't make sense.....but I will take it. I asked them 3 times if they were sure on the price.
Kind of amazed that I just influenced the buying power of a multi-million $ company! LOL Apparently they will carry it as a regular item now!!
