Best Place to Buy Copics

[andora]

Can someone tell me the best place to buy copic markers? I need to pick up quite a few.

I almost always buy mine from Carpe Diem on like. When you register you pay 4.85 and free shipping after 50.00. I believe they carry every color. I have bought some at local stamp convention in NH (kinda far for you) for the same price. Happy stamping...Bobbi

That is supposed to say on line. Teach me not to read before I hit enter.

JoAnn (on line only), iCopic, MarkerPOP and Scrapbooking Warehouse have them for $5.24 or so. I think some of them have free shipping after various $$$ purchases. I have ordered from these sites and have had no problem and received them in a timely manner. I friend bought some from an online site (?) and when she took the cap off some of the markers, some ink was dripping out. She thought maybe the stock was older so the company filled them before sending. They were probably in the unpressurized part of the plane so pressure built up within the pen. She recommended opening the pens purchased from anywhere on both ends to relieve any pressure build up.

If I only need some and can wait, I buy them one at a time from Hobby Lobby with a coupon. Regular price is $6.99 so with a 40% off coupon it is very reasonable. Michael's has them in the store but their regular price is $7.99 so even with a coupon the online sites have a better price depending on shipping cost.

Another Oozak fan. I've experienced some great customer service many times over from them!

I haven't started my collection yet, but plan on it. I saw some sets at Micheals and plan on buying those when I get 50% coupons.

Dick Blick is another place with reasonable prices.

I got a set at overstock.com on a weekend when they had 15% off.

If your just getting started and want to get a set try amazon.com.

I also like the Trio or Blending sets, each set comes with three that work perfectly together. I got mine at scrapbookpal.com for $15 and free shipping at only $25!

I placed an order at iCopic late afternoon yesterday. I had requested 2 markers of a color and received an email asking if I DID want 2 of this color. I had only requested 1 of the other colors. I replied as soon as I read the email and received a reply quickly. Today, I received an email that my order was processed and shipped.
