Hey everyone:D

First off, thanks for replies to my cries for help.

I'm here again to ask if anyone can recommend a distributor for laguna b-
mix 5. My studio charges me 30 buck for 50lbs and I'm going to have to
either find a cheaper alternative or purchase in bulk from a distributor
that I can pick up from or has low shipping cost.

Many thanks here in NYC.

Lissa,

Check for distributors close to you on the Laguna website. Click
the "distributors" link on the front page. http://www.lagunaclay.com/

Lissa, try Aardvark Bee Mix. Less expensive, works the same. :)

That sounds like the closest deal so far. Will the price per pound
decrease with quantity or is it a flat rate. Either way can you email me
some quotes per pound if you don't want to put it online.

Thanks in advance!

Sincerely,
The frantic potter desperatly trying to get everything done in time for
the holidays aka Lissa :D
