    Default Organoil.

    Have been informed that Bunnings are quitting Organoil stocks at reduced prices.

    The rumor mill is that Organoil are now defunct which buggers Bunning because they usually send back stock they do not want for a credit.

    So clearance sale it is then.

    That expalins why they haven't answered my email i sent nearly three weeks ago.

    Bad manners are bad manners whether you be in receivership or not. Normally I feel sorry for staff in this sort of situation but not responding to a faithful customer diminishes the pity, to me it appears that they only wanted to know me when they were collecting my money.

    I guess I will have to source oils from elsewhere - any suggestions?

    Have a look at colours by nature. Their Livos oil finish is fantastic.

    Neil Scobie was promoting Livos a while back, I looked at it then & thought it was a bit pricey at the time, haven't looked lately.

    Just ducked across to the North Parramatta store and picked up the last three 1L cans at $24.90 ea down from $38.53. They still have 500m cans at $19+ ea on clearance

    Everything at Bunnies in Cairns is cheap, best deal is the 10L drums of Danish for $99 each, I got one but there is still one there.
