Alright guys, let's keep the discussion civil. Several rude and/or OT posts have been deleted. Next step, if needed, are time outs. But let's not go there.

We offer free shipping over $50. Difficult to ship something that costs $22 for free without losing money...

kirbya, I have yet to order anything from your site due to the shipping costs. $10 to ship Reno is kind of nuts. I can ship a pair of shoes for that price via USPS Priority (2-3 day shipping). Maybe you should utilize the Post Office instead of UPS? Just a thought.

First, we dont ship USPS First Class because we have had trouble with products arriving broken. Our free shipping is USPS Priority, but even that costs us $10 once boxes and fulfillment is involved.

But if you really just want a thing of Reno, PM me and we'll do shipping for $5. But we'll ship USPS priority.

Why pay shipping when companies offer free shipping for the same $22 jar of Reno?

Hello Gents,

How would you care for a brand new pair of calf Carmina leather shoes before you wear these outside.

I got horsehair brushes, Saphir Reno, wax and cream.

thanks

If you can't afford Reno and are worried about the shipping costs, don't buy it.

I haven't found it to be any better than any other of the multitude of cleaner/conditioners out there. I have some Tarrago that works fine.

You'll only be using it every 6 months or so anyway.

A coat of wax will suffice. I also like to scuff up the soles a little bit.
