Forgot to add I think zackwhite carries veg splits but I have not ordered from them in a long time after getting some very poor quality leather a while back.

Looks like you searched the same ones I did. That one definitely across the water.  That other guy is on ebay and etsy, too, but I hadn't seen the whole sides - just pieces.

Don't know how many times I looked right at HO page saying they got splits. Always went right by it -- probly cuz minimum 30 splits... and I've seen my checkbook! :rofl:

It occurs to me that W&C might be willing to sell you some.  Since they split to order for customers and some of those probably do not want their splits , they likely have some that they'd be glad to be rid of .. and probably cheaply.

Did you get a price for the 30 quantity? I have never asked about the price on them, it was on a price list I got a long time ago but prices from 2007 dont really transfer to prices today unfortunately.

The ones from across the water look good and the different colors are a nice option but sure the shipping would kill the deal, plus returning anything is out of the question.

I got a price list somewhere around here .....

 

SHOOOOT .. shoulda haddem through a couple dozen in the last order.  I found my 2015 price list, which aint QUITE so far back.  Looks like the splits are $1.25 - $1.50, dependin' on thickness.  So, $35-$40 each

Only question, then, is how long it would take me to use up 30  of 'em!

I considered the W/C too, but since they are splitting various, then the selection isn't consistent.  Maybe don't need to be for that matter.

JLS what weight were you needing and do you know what weights they even offer? I don't have any myself, but have thought in the past if a couple or 3 people could go together on the splits to make the minimum, I think maybe I could use some. I suppose by the time ya get freight on it from St Louis to IA, then IA to SD, they wouldn't be so cheap anymore.

Fer me, I was thinkin' about 3 oz.  I could live with 4, but not 2.

Some of us have talked about "poolin" funds for years -- and it's never happened!  Seems once we get past the talkin' stage, in the end it's usually a bunch of people wanting Jeff to be responsible.  Like if we don't like it...send it back to Jeff (yikes).

You, on the other hand, seem like a grown man -- so I'll keep you in mind ;)  I'll have to think about how many I might reasonably use up, say like before the end of the year.  Not 30 sides, but maybe 10-ish?
