Do you want any info on any products other than those listed?

Four Star Leather Conditioner $1.12/oz.
That`s the current price for the Polycharged version.
I have used the previous non polycharged version for 5 or 6 years and have been happy with it.

FWIW, I have no idea what the benefit of polycharging a leather conditioner would be.

Other options is fine. I have Connoly`s Hide Care and Pinnacle Leather Cleaner & Conditioner. I was just thinking of trying something else and selected those options from Detail City`s offerings.

I like Poorboys Leather Stuff. I applied it by hand 2 weeks ago and the smell still lingers. :)

How about the DuraGloss leather conditioner? You should be able to get that locally.
Duragloss Duragloss LC (Leather Conditioner) (http://www.duragloss.com/product.asp?pid=283)

Looks to be under 1.00 an oz.

The 4* leather products are very good but the best ones I`ve used are Zaino.

Out of that list I like Poorboys Leather stuff, but I also like the Zymol leather cleaner and conditioner.

Is this the product?: Four Star Ultimate Leather Conditioner. (http://www.detailcity.com/four-star-ultimate-leather-conditioner-16-ounce.html)

I agree, I wonder what is up with the "polycharger"? Is that like "New and improved"? I`ve not tried any 4 Star products so perhaps this could be my opportunity! At $1.12 an oz, it`s on the higher end.

+1 for the pre-polychaged version.

I wasn`t aware that the formulation had been "polycharged", and I too question the benefits. Maybe someone can chime in with an explanation.

The only other product from your list I`m familiar with is Lexol. It has also been a good performer.

What I have and use is the previous version that did not have the Polycharger added.
I have been very happy with it and the 2000 GTP with a little over 60,000 miles on it still looks great inside.
One thing I consider very important with leather is to clean and treat it regularly. I never let it get dirty so the cleaning is easy and I don`t have to scrub at the leather. Never use a brush, just a cotton terry towel.
Since the GTP has coated leather, I also use 303 on it once in a while to help preserve the vinyl coating. It may not be the right way and it might be overkill, but it has worked pretty good for close to 8 years. :)

You probably should try the Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection when you order.
Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection Boosted With Polycharger! - Four Star Ultimate Car Care Products (http://www.detailcity.com/four-star-ultimate-paint-protection-16-ounce.html)
It was my product of choice for several years. I have never used a slicker product. That was also prior to the polycharger being added. Should be even better now.

Leather stuff gets my vote. It softens well, picks up dirt and residue and like Joy said, it has a great long lasting leather scent.

One thing about the Leather Stuff. It is a cleaner and conditioner in one.
Some will like that, some won`t. :)

Such choices! I have many PB products and they are always good so it is tempting to get the PB Leather Stuff. But I`ve not tried any 4 Star products. I really should just stick with the Connelly`s Hide care I have, but I`m a sucker for trying new stuff. And Detail City has that sale on until the end of the month....
