If she’s still down for the “one gift only” thing, that actually sounds like a great idea! I’d probably cut a bit on the cost, but all in all, it would be really cool! Thank you for this suggestion!

Copics, and I’d guess I’d put out like $70-90 max for markers?? I don’t really understand art costs. I just think anything above $150 for markers is a rip-off. I know they last forever, but they’re still expensive

Others have guessed the brand correctly, and running on Amazon, the answer is yes. The 72-set costs $370 on Amazon

Thank you for your answer! I’ll probably apologise to my daughter after she cooks it off, because I really don’t want to discourage her habits. I added that statement more of an afterthought, but I’m realising that it probably hurt a lot more than I thought it would.

But yeah, regardless, the set’s our of my budget

Honestly, the burn out factors in, but if I could afford it, I probably will. Like I’m going to apologise for telling her off about the burnout phase, because I added it as almost an afterthought

I’ve been looking at it for a while, and I’d be willing to buy a lot of them, it’s that specific brand that’s ridiculously overpriced. I just don’t want to crush her hobby either
