So I have bought a couple of resin sets from this lady a few times and I always knew she was wayyy over charging for them but I don't have a "Business License" so I cannot view a couple of wholesale distributors pages to order some with their price. So I was going to see if any of you knew where I may be able to find some cheaper than she is. She is charging $6.50 + $2.00 s&h for 6 resins... I have bought them in the past from her but I have a festival coming up soon and I want to cut my cost down so I can get the money to pay for the tables to show. Do any of you happen to know where I can get there? I need these exact ones... Thanks so much in advance!!!

I took up the challenge to search for you and I saw a few sites that offer the minnie resin you have pictured. I didn't see any of the christmas present one but it seems to me that you're getting a good deal. If you're not buying in bulk, then she actually charging a fair price. Most other places were charging 1.25 a pair! :eek: And that's not including shipping. There was another place that charges only .57 per resin but they didn't have what you needed. You can find a lot of inexpensive places without having to buy bulk but they didn't have the EXACT ones you needed. If you're willing to settle for other resins I'd be more than happy to share what I found.

I know that isn't much help but I wish you luck! :)

I agree, that's actually a pretty good retail price for those. A lot of wholesale places make you spend a min. $75.00-$100 even more per order. So if you are looking to "save" money, I'd order them at retail. If you are looking to get a lot at a good price, search the wholesalers.

Okay so I found the exact same ones on etsy and that person is charging dbl what the other woman is! People have lost their minds! And yes I found some of the same ones that the lady was charging 6.50 for on the hairbow center website( I think thats what its called ). I wish we could find the direct place that makes these and one of us could start up a page to sell them at what they are worth not what people decide to make you pay for them! Thanks for looking ladies! I have been searching since this am and am still looking. Also do you guys happen to know where you can get a better variety of printed ribbons other than hairbow center and rabom? They don't have a big selection of printed christmas ribbon and I really don't want to spend the money the other woman is asking when seeing how cheap these two sites are. Thanks alot!

If you can order in advance, you can get them off eBay. Right now prices are up from what I saw a few weeks back....but if you start thinking ahead and get the next holiday's resins early (since they will probably ship from Hong Kong) you can save a bit on there. HTH

I have not seen those resins cheap either. I also saw many sell them in pairs and they are expensive. I am also looking for some.

I just wish I had the time to do my polymer clay creations for bow centers...but they take SO long I'd never get them done......maybe it's something I should work on when the "busy season" is over. :)
