I ordered from the Bethlehem Olive Wood store before and tool over 3 months to get, High S&H and only a handfull of nice blanks.
Any suppliers stateside that has a faster turnaround with nice blanks?

They sell on eBay and the shipping is pretty quick and the shipping charges are reasonable. I bought once through their website and had the same experience as you, but it was entirely different buying from them on eBay.

There is a thread on business classifieds going on now for Bethleham Olive wood

most sellers unless they say they have stock will have to order it. CSUSA if you need it quickly. Even the ad in the business classified says up to 4 weeks.

I have an order in now for 120 blanks. About half of them are already spoken for. I expect them in any day now, but shipments from Israel are anything but consistent as far as timing goes. My price is $2.94 each for 3/4" blanks. I believe someone is currently arranging a bulk buy that will beat my prices.
