Who’s behind it
I’m a drummer.
I started Blackwaxx&Co because I felt that Australian drummers were missing out! The brands I have on the site are all brands and products I personally use and love! I had a hard time accessing these goods from all the way down here in Aus - and when I did finally get them, it cost me a fortune in currency conversion fees, international shipping and local taxes. I wanted to do something about that so that other drummers in Australia could get access to these brands we have seen and love, but don't deserve to be paying so much money and hassle in obtaining.
I believe in good, timely service. I believe in fair pricing and I feel that Australians haven't been looked after enough in that regard.
