It's not a big deal since they're refillable, but at least now I understand why the Prismas are kept behind glass.

Still, how fucking rude is this?

If that's how you choose to see it...

is blogspot down for maintenance

>>3036696

No but your mom's down on my cock.

Seriously though, I'm an idiot and forgot to put "Pet peeves/rage thread" in the title.
>>
>>3036566
shit, exact same thing happened to me. wondering if this is a local thing or they're locked elsewhere.
>>
>>3036722
the copics at two michaels I go to are locked up. I don't know why they wouldn't lock up 8 dollar markers desu, especially at a hobby store like that with kids
>>
>>3036566 (OP) #
I gave my copic collection to my younger brother, one of his kids is able to use them, the other one just does body art with them. Try phoning the manager and letting them know that you'll be returning the markers later that day. Highlight their business practices and mention that you've discussed this subject with other people. They should offer you a deal if you still have the receipt. Michaels is a good family arts and crafts store but it isn't at the level of a Currys.

I once got a thick stack of Bristol board for comics... Like fifty pages of 11x17" paper -- for $5 -- just because someone at Michaels mispriced it. If they had more people like that working there, I'd go all the time.
>>
>>3036751
damn, and they have like 50% off coupons all the time too.
>>
>>3036755
You can walk through the store and be like, what's wrong with that product, it's still selling at full price! If you really need an item that never goes on sale, get it online. Of course the holy grail in this line of shopping is the 75% off sale, I got my travel easel at that price. You can find good canvases there, but I think there may be something wrong with Frederickson canvases because oil colours had a tendency to fade.
>>
>>3036769

75% off? I thought that was an urban myth!
>>
>Fredrix?
It's some kind of cotton canvas that I haven't gotten in years. I think it came in a three-pack.
>>
>>3036770
It's elusive but it's no myth. They started off selling this lightweight aluminium easel for $150 or more, but they quickly backpedaled on that.
>>
Call the store, and complain. Seriously, you'll thank me later.
>>
>>3036566
fucking normies reeeeeeee

Copic thread? Copic thread.

I've got a decent start on my collection and now I'm looking to expand to make it more versatile.

I've got:

R27, YR04, Y11, Y15, YG06, B24, B29, V15, E00.

Mostly midtones that I want to complement with lighter and darker values.

What is the next step I should take?

>>3036566
they are children. your autism is the problem here. grab some from the back if it bothers you so much. or go back to ordering online
