IwantItgreen Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 If you within driving distance to one then that is the one i'd chose. Shipping will add about another $25- $30 to each case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzphee Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 im not in driving distance I wish I were, the prices does include shipping from gateway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysWondering Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 If you are genuinely torn, meaning they are pretty darn equal in performance, I would buy the least expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantItgreen Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I would recommend testing 5 -10lbs of each first. I realize you won't be able to get the samples from gateway, but then you'll know for sure and not 2nd guess your choice when things get hairy. thecandlemakersstore.com sells the 416 in 1 or 10lbs and most suppliers carry the EcoPB.

IwantItgreen Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Oh cool beans!! I didn't realize they carried all the waxes and had sample too! I don't use them as a supplier. Not sure how to advise you now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
