I'm not sure if all the pastels are still the same price in open stock today, two years later... but it's interesting to note that the individual prices only adds up to $50.05, and the sampler costs $55 (and that's still the sampler price today). The one rub, of course, is that you can't get the Terry Ludwig open stock from anywhere but Terry Ludwig, and then there is a significant shipping charge. So I guess you're paying a $4.95 upcharge to get to try just one Ludwig :). Edit: the open stock prices have gone up, most notably, the Blue Earth is now $4 instead of $3.30!
Liked your review and great to hear about the TL pastel...it helps to know various opinions as they are on the pricier side. If you could review Henri Roche pastel...it is said to be the Bugatti of pastel, you know what I mean 😄
Sennelier in my country cost 2.95! unisons are 5.20€, schmincke are 4.30€ and giraults are 4.60

Yes I do! I hear they have the blackest black, not that I use black much. Hopefully some day I can get my hands on some ;)
Thank you for your review especially of the Terry Ludwig ones. Love a review of Jaxall pastels if you can get them in the US.
I will check to see if I can!!
Great review…did you do one for the different papers you acquired?
No, but that is a good idea!! I might get another pack just to show the differences. Thank you!
I am excited about an order I am getting today of square shaped pastel samples from Dakota Art. It’s so great that they do that for artists
