Below are the pigments that are available for purchase and this is a complete list minus the
afore-mentioned Anna's Art Asylum pigments and my SpectraFlair. As I can use my glitters and flakes for things outside of polish making, I have decided not to include these either. Most of these pigments can still be purchased by the ounce or sample from the original companies- TKB Trading, The Conservatorie and Coastal Scents but some are discontinued and this is noted below as it applies.
Coastal Scents samples are, average, $1.00 each for a teaspoon (appx. 1 gram)
The Conservatorie samples are, average, $0.95 each for a teaspoon (appx. 1 gram)
TKB Trading samples are, average, $1.50 each for 6 grams (appx. 4 teaspoons). In the past they sold 1 tablespoon, approximately 12 grams, for the same price.
TCP Global does not sell samples.
I intend to make a small profit, not take a loss, but my prices will be based on what I paid originally, not what these pigments go for currently. I plan on shipping via the Postal Service, a cheaper method whereas all three pigment companies usually ship Fed Ex or UPS. This means you save on shipping if you bought from me versus if you decided to buy directly from any of them. I will also state that I am a bargain hunter to the core and so those materials I choose to package and ship with will not become a huge cost for you to absorb. The baggies I will probably use to package individual pigments in would add roughly $0.10 each, the same as what I will pay for them. If I find them cheaper, the savings, however small, will be passed on to you. The same will be true for the envelopes/bubble mailers.
While I cannot use the Postal Service's shipping calculator without a destination zipcode and an approximate package weight to estimate a shipping charge, I am guessing based on prior smaller packages I've mailed that it may be around $4.00-$5.00 but that had included delivery confirmation and insurance which are optional services from the Postal Service.
All payments will go through PayPal.
Over the course of the day, I'll be going through this list and adding links to the swatches on my blog (you can find these now by using the tags or doing a search on this blog), whether they are interference or duochrome pigments. After that I'll be working on individual prices. so please check back. -MK

I can't wait for you to get this sorted out, what a great way to try out new pigments from all these companies at once!
ReplyDeleteIn case you hadn't noticed, I started my little sale.
DeleteWhile, for personal and selfish reasons, are very sad to see this sale up (because I know this means you're serious about your lack of desire to continue this venture), I'm also pretty effing psyched to grab up some quality pigments.
ReplyDeleteAny chance I can lay claim to your entire supply of the TKB "Travel To" and "Star Bites" pigments? Seriously, no need to take the time to divvy them up into sample sizes. I want all of all of them.
Please and thank you.
To be fair, you probably wouldn't get a better price from me for those compared to what you'd pay from TKB Trading directly. The only difference would be the cost of shipping as I have no need to ship Fed Ex or UPS (TKB doesn't always either but often enough). I cannot compete price-wise with any of the three big companies without taking a loss. I'm not interested in making a fortune above what I paid myself, that's not my thing, taking advantage of other people, but taking a loss isn't acceptable either.
DeleteYou did just help me decide to go about this though so thanks for that. Let me finish this new post/update and I'll send another reply here.
I completely agree that its not acceptable to take a loss to liquidate your pigments and your pricing is more than fair.
DeleteHaving just started an indie polish line, I know how hectic it can be to receive, process, and ship a ton of orders all at once so please don't feel like you need to hurry to send my order out. When you're ready to invoice me, my paypal is jesikah6 at gmail.
I know this can't be easy for you but I'm sure once its all over it will feel liberating. :-)
Please send me an email confirming what it is you're interested in and I'll send a message via email what your total will be and we can go from there, ok? Thanks.
DeleteHi..I am interested in an ounce of Taurus Orion, but will be happy enough to purchase a sample size if that's all you have left. My email and paypal address is lorijweyer@yahoo.com. Please let me know if you have any left and if so, the total plus shipping. Thank you...Lori
