    Default Ignorant Retailers

    For a couple of months now I have been sending emails to retailers in NSW and VIc in regards to obtaining Spanish Cedar for cigar boxes. Not one of these ignorant ba....... have had the decency to reply. Perhaps it is because the ignorant B....... s are not prepared to deal with foreign countries such as W.A or they are ripping off the poor sods in their own states and do not need the extra business. Thank goodness we have Timbecon and WA Carbatec. Pity the did not have access to Spanish Cedar. (They at least know what it is)

    Eh, senor Alf, I was rather, how you say, promiscuous, in old Madrid before I come to your Oztrailer. Gringo, you would call me a Spanish seeder, no???

    Yes, but we have the timber, so we can afford to be witty and jovial.

    Hey Alft , its not confined to Spanish Cedar or WA purchasers.
    I have been looking for a variety of Oz timbers for a while and generally don't get replies to many of my emails. Some have even been sent to forum members who have previously griped about the lack of customers for their timbers but they don't bother to answer emails from a genuine buyer.

    I wanted some aromatic Cedar to line a chest andd was able to source Spanish Cedar from Trend Timbers in Windsor. They were very helpful and have supported me well with phone orders (I live some distance away and when I needed that "one extra peice" to finnish a project they went out of their way to help match.
