Default Brushos cheaper elsewhere

I know that Stampin Up is getting Brushos as of Jan 1st, 2018. I saw the price for them at $30.00 for 5 bottles. I went and search see what it was priced at other stores. Well at Amazon you can get a 6 bottles plus a spitzer is $30.00. Tell me why I should order Stampin Up?

Dick Blick has the set of 6 with spritzer for $25 and the set of 12 for $32.

I was thinking the same as you. ;)

Some people don't want to shop around for the lowest prices; some like having someone show them in person how to use a product; others prefer to buy their supplies from one place; some may not want more than 5 bottles....there are various reasons why people buy from Stampin' Up! I agree they usually aren't the least expensive for a given product, though, so someone that doesn't care about having a demonstrator and/or wants the best bargain would do better buying from somewhere else.

I can't imagine! They're even less at Blick...

...you could choose your own colors and get 9 bottles for $30... spend $5 more and get free shipping on your order.

Even Amazon has them cheaper.. Oh hell no I shop around for the cheaper prices and SU and the other MLM's are not cheaper at all.

I was thinking the same, and I tried to find the same colors as SU (since I'm a demo). It was going to be nearly the same cost for me to get the exact colors at DB (couldn't find the same colors on Amazon). Of course that includes my SU demo discount though.

Default Difference between brushos and Ken Oliver color burst

I seen the brushos in the SU new catalogue so my question is what is difference between Ken Oliver color burst and brushos as they seem to be similar.

I have a blog post that discusses a few different brands - it might be helpful...?
