I thought the title would get the 'Pinkie Pleaders''attentions!
Right! This is NOT the answer you want to hear! Officially, Creative will NOT be bringing pinkie enamels back! Here is why... and it is to with costs - theirs, ours and yours!
It costs the same to fill an 1/8oz pinky bottle as it does a 1/2oz bottle BUT, the 1/8oz needs to be done by hand where as the 1/2oz is done by machine! CND say it is too expensive to produce pinkies and the mad part of it is, you (or we) would have to charge the same for a pinkie bottle as we do for a 1/2iz enamel - I seriously doubt that any sane person would pay £3.15 + vat for a pinkie to sell RRP at £10 (same as 1/2oz)???? Naaaaa - NOT going to happen!
So here is the point when some of you shout...but so & so do pinkies....yes true, but the so & so's that do pinkies are enamel based companies NOT product based companies like CND...we have a fabulous enamel line but we are PRIMARY about L+P and Gel, Tips, adhesive and PREP!
I am sorry to disappoint those of you who asked but I was able to sit and talk at length with the VP of Int Sales today and I know that some of you have been waiting for me (for a while) to give you a satisfactory answer.
It's funny but when we have cool ideas (and if it's been done before), we think that 'something' must be relatively easy to achieve, we don't realize the fundamentals behind our ideas...and this is just no longer viable for them, us or for you! Over and out on the Pinkie Predicament!:zzz:
