can you buy a box of hetman oil?

Post by pgiampi1 »

Hi everyone. I need to get more valve oil, and I'm tired from ordering it from places a few bottles at a time. Is there anyone you sells Hetman valve oil online or otherwise by the box? I'm not expecting any deep discounts, just enough oil that is practical to buy all at once and pay a reasonable amount for shipping.

I'm definitely getting Hetman, so I only need to know if anyone sells that oil (No. 1 specifically) in bulk.

thanks!

I was always able to buy it in dozens from WWBW http://www.wwbw.com/Hetman-Instrument-L ... 8665.music. It does not save a lot of money but they were wiling to do it. I found it easier to do through their catalog, by calling and talking to someone; the dozen discount is not listed on line.
Always make a good sound; audiences will forget if you miss a note but making a good sound will get you the next job.

I think Dillons was cheapest when I last looked ($3.95) and if you buy 51 bottles you get free shipping! You could always ask them if they do a bulk discount, and at what point that kicks in.

Yeah, 51 bottles is a lot. A dozen sounds good to me. I'll call them up tomorrow.
