Just wondering.... has any of our lapidaries had any interaction with the folks at Bombay Bazar near Cleveland Ohio?

Does anyone have any info as to whether they are still in business?

Roger, I read somewhere not too long ago that they had closed. Not sure where I read it, or how good the information was.

The website is there but they won't answer emails from me and the shipping to Canada crashes.

It is a shame, I want a sintered lap.

Out of curiosity I called their toll-free number and got the recording: "This number is no longer in service." All indications suggest they're kaput.

Talk to Kinglsey North! They are still in business and are nice folks who sell stuff for pretty reasonable prices. Since they are in MI it will arrive to you FAST also.

www.kingsleynorth.com I think

No affiliation, just a satisfied customer.

Thanks John. I know them and know their character - and are a fine outfit to work with.

I was asking on behalf of someone in Asia that was trying to get things rolling with Bombay Bazar. They could never get past the home page of their website. Perhaps the IP addresses from Singapore are blocked?
