@BlickVideos Oh sorry I was looking at the wrong website! Lol. Yes I just went on your website and you have them for WAY lower. Hmm, maybe I'll splurge on a nice wooden box set.

@FRB1420 I'm glad you found our page! Blick works hard to make sure we offer products at the lowest prices. Thanks!

[FRB1420]

I think the wood box set is overpriced. It only has 96 pencils, yet is over $250. The 132 pencil set in a tin is only about $120. I know the box is worth something, but why pay over $130 more for 36 less pencils?

@FRB1420 I am not sure which website you were looking at. The Blick website offers these sets at a much, much lower price.

I got the 132 prismacolor set. You have no idea how long it took me to sharpen all of them.

When you sharpen a mass of pencils, it doesn't matter how you sharpen them. You throw technique out the door.
