Starry and Christmas Paint Brushes

Mon Aug 13, 2007 10:12 am

Just two quick questions:

1) Does anybody know what was the average price of the Starry PB before the recent Tarla giveaway? I have one and I want to sell it, but I was waiting for the price to go up. Right after the giveaway it was about 100-110k, now it's between 125k-150k. Will it go up any more?

2) Does the Christmas PB's price increase significantly in November/December and is it worth buying a bunch now (at 160k) and selling then? What kind of profit are we talking about here?

I doubt it'll go any higher. Tarla's still giving them away, so they're flooding the market. In fact, even if the Toolbar giveaways stop, the price will go down because hoarders will try to unload their stashes all at once.

I'm interested too. Seeing as I have a christmas paint brush, I wonder if I could have gotten it for less.

(please note this post reflects what i knew when i used neo 3 years ago...)

This what I know about christmas brushes before I took my 3 years break.

It used to be that December - March where when the christmas brushes were at their cheepest. Mostly because theres so many...some people use them and some sell them. But as the months pass some get lost in the mix (accidently thrown away, accounts frozen, etc). Around Aug/Sept was usually when their prices were highest. November-December some of the older brushes that were stashed away come out of hiding...for the people who want to make their pets festive for the holidays.

I dont know how prices go now, but I would assume not too much has changed.

You bring up a really valid point. So essentialy,, buy paint brushes in March.
