WholesaleSupplies acquired Rustic Escentuals

Wowza! WSP just acquired Rustic Escentuals?

I am not very sure how I feel about it though.

While I am happy Rustic Escentuals FOs will continue and I love WSP FOs and Customer Service, WSP just got even bigger and with size comes the propensity to tell the little guys like hobbyist to take it or lump it!

Oh well, we will see...

I wonder if we are able to still order from RE's website! Not sure because I feel like since WSP acquired them, that we won't be able to find RE's fragrance oils on WSP's website

According to the email, customers would still be able to order from Rustic Escentual's website.

You and me both.

I know how I feel about it, but, it's not a positive feeling, so I'll keep the rest to myself...

Yikes. Maybe shipping will get better pricing. That would be awesome.

I have tried a few of RE fragrance oils and really liked them, but the shipping for me was just too much. So maybe a bright spot there. I kind of have a love/hate relationship with WSP. It sounds like it's a done deal though, so we'll just have to see how it goes.

I get the majority of my FOs from RE. It's going to be a real PITA if WSP changes them. And I have always appreciated how quick RE ships, I hope that doesn't change either.

I agree, however, RE shipped lightning fast! I ordered last time on Wednesday and had my package on Friday!

They have always been very timely. I use their lip balm tubs, caps and flavor oils. Plus some FO and other things.

Well at least the fo's will still be available. So many suppliers have just disappeared without a trace.... A Garden Eastward, Scent Works, Simple Soothings...
