Sugarcraft.com has them for $1.39 a piece. Pfeil and Holing (www.cakedeco.com) has them for $1.29 a piece. Shipping is whatever UPS charges. I don't think there is handling. I"m going to both right now to check on what sets cost. Back in a minute.....

OK I'm back. Sugarcraft has a set of four for $5.50, 2 different sets of 12 for $13.00. Pfeil and Holing's price is $1.25, not $1.29 each and their sets are 4 colors for $4.50, 8 for $8.40, and 12 for $11.88. If you want to see which colors are in which sets go to:

http://www.sugarcraft.com
then click on food coloring int he left margin and then Americolor when you get to the coloring page

I'v bought flavorings on ebay and they were just fine, if it says new they will be sealed, it should be fine.

I edited my post above. I think this is not a great deal, but not bad. You can get it for less at either place I quoted above.

Well, I think it is good you didn't bid, since you can buy any 12 colors you want at Pfeil and Holing for a total of $15.00 plus shipping and you can get a set of 12 that they think are the "student colors" for $11.88 plus shipping. I find their shipping to be reasonable.

I used to be addicted to e-bay and I bought 3 trumpets and a cornet for my son. I'm always amazed that people are so sure they are getting a deal that they will pay more than they would if they just ordered from a normal supplier. You did great to research before bidding! thumbs_up.gif
