donna4909 Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Is there a difference between:Candlewic's Crystallizing Container wax- Palm 1 &Candlesandsupplies Crystal Container waxThere's a big price difference, but I'm not sure why. Has anyone done comparisons of these waxes? I tried searching but couldn't find anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheilaW Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 I have only tried Candlewics and GloryBees and the only difference was the price. I would think that since there aren't any additives and the processing is probably very similar that the palms would basically perform the same. I COULD be way wrong on this assumption so hopefully someone will post that has tried palm wax from multiple suppliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candleessence Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I have used both of these waxes & I have seen no difference except pricing. I actually just bought 10 lb of the crystalizing pillar wax from C&S & almost fell off my chair when I saw how much per pound when you added shipping. Also keep in mind Candlewic has a $25.00 purchase minimum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siberia Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Frankly I belive it is either a matter of volume pricing or custom blending (my money is on volume $). One company is able to secure a better price due to the fact that it buys more. Is there a difference in the wax? Sure. Just as there is a difference in soy waxes from one reseller to another. When the price variance is that large one must look deeper . I would bet that candleandsupplies.com set their price point based on impulse purchases vs those that are looking for a good deal on palm wax. Just a guess.

donna4909 Posted December 16, 2005 Author Share Posted December 16, 2005 I bought the palm from Candlewic. I got crystallizing container & pillar blends Also got a slab of paraffin pillar wax from them as well. Good prices... It's scheduled to arrive the 19th. Can't wait to try it.
