Shellac Remove Tubes - 27-06-12, 07:23 AM

Hi everyone,

I am so desperate to buy some remover tubes from s2 but each time I stock up they are sold out. I've emailed the guys at s2 about this a few times and haven't had a reply as yet.

Is it just my bad luck when I'm ordering or is anyone else seeing them as out of stock all the time?

xx

Yeah, I just placed an order, as I couldn't wait any longer for them to re stock. They seem to have been out of stock for a while?

They did come back into stock about a month ago but then went out of stock again really quickly, I would call and ask when they are expecting more and then you can keep a check on them x

Best thing to do is call S2 rather than email then you will get an answer straight away.
You could also try the other distributor partners as they might have in stock, to the OP you are from Scotland so why not give The Fingertips Centre 0131 333 3180 a call and see if they have any in stock?

Problem with these are their popularity + stupidly long lead time for the tubes themselves (they come via boat from China). We have thousands on their way with more en route. Should have more in stock early next week (i.e. Monday)

Good, because our clients LOVE them and we love it if they use them because it saves us time and work and a bigger profit margin on both the service and the retail sale of the tubes.

Sorry to hijack - but how are you selling these? What are the selling points, as my price for Shellac includes a mini Solar oil at first appointment, and free removal at subsequent appointments. If I sell a remove tube I anticipate people asking for that money off somewhere

Yes if it's a one-off and they're not coming back I get it, but I'm intrigued by those that retail it for clients to soak off before they come back - that would be fab to me! Xx

Our Shellac price is the same from the first appointment to the last appointment ... Removal or not. We have never done giveaways so our clients expect to pay. We do not tell our clients how our costs are calculated ... It is never discussed whether or not removal is included or not they just pay the same service price all the time and removal is included if necessary. Most of our clients do not do their own removal but the can if they want with the Remove Tube and all the regulars have bought one 'just in case' they need to remove or want to remove or just to take on holiday etc.

D Solve isn't available in the States, where I see you are from, so I don't know if they are available to you, but here's a pic:
