Just for fun I decides to check out the Wimberley Enterprises. Inc. advertised on the right of the Discussion Forum screen. The one with the coo; flaming cat. They have some nice boxes and the prices are not bad. Especially if you don't have a good local selection. Coarse I found a couple boxes, I had to have, like the beautiful Indian Tabac that I can never win on e-bay. I order last night and this morning I had an email from Ms Wimberley that my order will be shipped this am! That is fast service. You might check them out. I like to do business with people that advertise here if I can.

CB Gitty is the guy I have gotten frets from. He's also one of us. Great service and great frets -- that is until I get hold of them ;-)
Boxes are hard for me to find in my Area.
Just ordered some boxes from the Flaming Cat Lady, (Lori).
Good pictures, Good prices.
One of the boxes was not in stock.
Gonna surprise me with a substitute.
Cant wait, kinda like a Birthday or something.
Good service is hard to find and Shes on it !
Emailed me right away and took care of it, Wow.
Going to make my first build with a Flaming Cat Box, Cool.
Thanks Lori
Wow !
Less than 2 hours and my order is shipped.
Now that is Service.
Know where all my boxes will come from now.
Just out of interest, would you ship to the UK lori?

We have a terrible time getting boxes over here, so I guess it might be worth your while :o)

We have talked about getting consignments of maybe 20 or 30 boxes sent over too as, even with shipping, they work out ok price wise!
I would like to order some boxes soon, is it possible to request only boxes big enough for guitars (in your opinion) on an order of 20?
If you could ship to the uk i would intrested in a couple, looking for my first box to play with!

I've been looking locally for months for a big enough box for my 6-string solid-body electric project. Need a minimum of 12" long and better 14" so the scale length falls out properly.

I checked the site but the interface seems a bit clumsy; do I have to join the thing?
In the past I have got boxes from other nation dwellers in the US - I think last time it cost $20 to post a box of 3.

Ted got a price for sending us a big box of 20 - 30 boxes (sending them whole ie not broken down) - I think it was about $130 to post the lot. The idea here was for me to buy them, get them shipped, then sell them on to the UK builders at cost. Its not a profit thing, we are just trying to help folk over here wit boxes.

I think this is still going to happen, but of course they wont last long, so a regular supply would be good!
Lori, you've got some killer boxes there that are giving me some ideas for some funky CBGs.
To keep this going for Lori,,,
I want to say that I've been ordering from her for a good while now,,,,, and shes NEVER let me down, not one time.
Shes good people to deal with, and she ALWAYS gets it done.
