Has Anyone Used Registers?

http://goatsupplies.netfirms.com/index.html

The mastitis test I use is $20 cheaper here than on Hoeggers. If you have used them, how was their shipping and handling, etc. You can't order online which kind of stinks but their prices seem pretty good.

They also have a lot of products I've never heard of but am intrigued by. For instance: dry teat dip. They have a winter and summer formula http://www.dairyhealthproducts.com/d...ered-teat-dip/ Has anyone tried this before? My girl's udders tend to chap in the winter because it is so cold and windy so I dry them up.

They also have a lot of fun stuff that I can't afford but I had a good time lusting over them like
.

Any cautions about them before I place an order?

I'm curious to know which test you use...
All I see is about a $3 difference for the CMT ....
And honestly..for that small a difference i'd rather order online to avoid hassle.

Oh edited to add....that $3 more that Hoegger charges comes as a concentrate that makes a gallon...the other says ready to use..not the concentrate.

I suck at math. It's only a $15 difference. I use this one. http://hoeggerfarmyard.com/xcart/Por...Milk-Test.html. That's how I found Register's. I ran out and went to PortaSCC's website to see if it was sold locally anywhere. They listed Registers as a supplier so I went there to check them out.

During our storm the other day my teat dip was freezing on the handle of my teat dipper. I had dipsicles. I can't imagine how it felt for them! I'd be willing to try it so I can milk through.
