Hi girls, I've been looking for apple leather care conditioner and applea rain & stain repellent for ages... they don't seem to sell it here in Australia... and it barely comes up on ebay.... I've tried leatherstuff.com... both products cost $16 total but shipment is $50!!!! Does any of you girls know where i can get them the cheapest? Also, the Mr. Clean Magic Ersaer... they only sell like 1 or 2 pcs in ebay.... thanks girls

try the local leather shop, those selling leather coat, jacket..etc
they should have the same product

^ juicy, go to applepolishes.com... that's their original website. it doesn't look like they have any dealers in AU. sorry! i would say that the shipping cost from LeatherStuff.com is really, really reasonable, at least domestically. the actual shipping costs were a few dollars more than LeatherStuff.com actually charged me!

you can just buy the big gallon so you can refill the smaller ones you buy. :) then you will only have to pay shipping once! plus, i hear that the prices might be going up.

good luck.

hmmm I think $50 is a bit too much for shipping, when the items I wanted to buy is only $16.00 thats why I'm looking for some other way I can get it...

eBay might be your best bet then... unless you know somebody in the states and can get them to ship it to you. the Apple Polish website also has a dealer locator for the US.

Hey Juicy. I'm from Oz, and recently came across a couple of great products from a local shoe repair shop. They are Waproo Leather cleaner, conditioner and waterproofer, and also Tana All Protector for water, dirt and grime. They were both priced at $10 each, and are fantastic!

Arianne12 · August 25th, 2008, 01:32 AM

I've got both of those and think they're great. I prefer the Tana Quality conditioner and cleaner which is also a water protector. The Waproo can leave little speckled spray marks on shiny leather which looks dull. I've used Tana on all my bags including Chanel and Jimmy Choo. I haven't used it on LV vachetta though just on the Damier. You can get the Tana from DJs. I mainly use the Waproo for suede boots.

Btw, I used normal white pencil eraser to remove dirt and marks on my white Gaucho and it worked really well. Again, not sure about vachetta.

OMG

$50 for shipping????

Wow. I was thinking about getting some Apple Leather products as well, but I think I'll be asking a friend in the States to send it, $50 sounds outrageous! Was that US$?

Thanks ladies..... I think I've got the Tana one, the quality conditioner and cleaner.... I got it off Victoria Station (bag shop) for $6 it was on sale. It worked great on my mono speedy but thought maybe the apple conditioner one is more appropriate for LV vachetta...

thanks for your inputs its okay I found someone selling hers and I'll get that one. Thanks thanks!

^ i just read that you were looking for the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, but i was thinking, is it actually that thing that is used, or is it the Magic Rub eraser rather than the cleaner? the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser might damage your bags? it works pretty well on walls around the house and stuff. hehe. just want to make sure. not really sure, does anyone else know?

Zombiegirl · August 25th, 2008, 09:07 AM

I have used the Mr. Clean magic eraser on my bags before. You just have to make sure it is wet and apply light pressure plus be very careful.

vuittongirlxoxo · August 25th, 2008, 09:17 AM

ZG, what have you used the magic eraser on?

Zombiegirl · August 25th, 2008, 09:20 AM

Everything! LOL! I have used it on the LV vachetta and the canvas.

vuittongirlxoxo · August 25th, 2008, 09:21 AM

Hm, I should try using it on the bottom of my LH, it is driving me crazy!!
