ah-soy Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Sad to see, I ordered my wax and some wonderful fo's from them. They were a good company with great customer service. I just place an order earlier in the week that shipped this past Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toni S. Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) *shudder* I sure hope JBN carries their FO's cuz some of GL'S are my top sellers too?????? Edited November 13, 2009 by Toni S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharonA Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 You know, JBN did this same thing only a couple or 3 months ago. Put a notice on the site they were closed, then a week or so later, they were open again.Makes me a little nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarsBars Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I'm saddened! I loved their FO's and their customer service was top notch. I esp enjoyed that they were relatively close so shipping was never a killer. Brenda and David will be missed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tizimarezie Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I got the email, too. It shook me up because I purchase my wax from them and LOVE it. David let me know, however, that JBN carries the same wax. Whew! I sure hope JBN is stable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandleChic Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I looked at JBN and they are carrying MOST the FO's that GL had except Butt Naked that ppl here in Tx love. They are carrying the Sweet Orange and Chili Pepper and Mexican Vanilla..thank goodness. I have a lady that only orders the Mex. Vanilla.I hate Vanilla but this is the best I have ever had.I thought JBN pulled that closing bit a few months back to..OMG,and I need those top 3..anyone know where else to get those besides JBN?I've looked but can't find them except there,and Butt Naked at BCN is where I'll have to try that one I guess.They(GL) had started carrying some new FO's so i thought all was ok with them.

Holly Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 They have always carried some of the same (same names anyway). I am not sure if it looks like they have actually taken over GL's products yet. I do not yet see Violet Musk and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin. I looked for a note but did not see anything saying they have taken over some of GL's products. I just hate when this happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarsBars Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I emailed David and he said we can buy our oils from JBN, his sister Martha owns the company. I'm glad I don' t have to find replacements for GL's oils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandleChic Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 That's great news,if I had seen all of the ones I needed,lol..Wonder why Butt Naked isn't listed..sent them an email yesterday morning and haven't heard a word.I hope I hear back,but can call them..at least they have the other 2 important ones I need:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Gosh I did business with those guys for several years. I knew that Brenda had been sick but the business was supposed to be doing real well. That used to be a great room to talk about the biz. Sorry guys. good luck in whatever you decide to do in the future.Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ah-soy Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Does anyone know if JBNs 9900 parasoy blend is the same wax as GLs 7505 parasoy? I've been using the 7505 and really love it. Suppose I can call the company to find out...if they'll tell me that is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
