I Tested Amazon's LOWEST RATED Art Supplies...big YIKES! 

holy crap

They used to do this at a clothing store, and also my old job had bought boxes of random things at company auctions like Sears. So they came in like that, but I’m in Rhode Island so I think it’s legal here.

@@jannaj2719 please tell me it’s job lot

They also have stores in the southern US, maybe other parts of the us too, where they somehow acquire lots of unsold merchandise from other stores, to sell at a discount. And the brand name is always crossed out.

OMG!!!! 😳😳😳😳😳😳

Ooof. I live in Ireland and the sketchbooks they have us use for school are actually pretty decent. They're nothing special but they're at least made from paper that can actually handle a good amount.

We always made our own sketch books with sketch paper they gave us.

I got no packs or anything just a thin piece of paper and they tell us to do something with a pencil, if I got that in art class I would be so happy

I’m from Japan and the sketchbook and art material they gave us was beautiful. I have no complaints about it

In my secondary school they give like good paper to yr10+ because we do GCSE art and a level art

Sameee or it’s all line or pictures it’s at my old school sadly after 2nd grade my family moved me to this new school for aap even though it’s at my old school and they are learning

I had the same kinda ones from kindergarten (I'm Australian) and we would draw what we did on the weekend then in our best kindergarten spelling write what we did under the picture I once wrote that I almost drowned. I still have mine and let me tell you. My art isnt any better since then 🤣

YESSSS

@@randomaccount64 HAHA I feel you 😂

I used to write about my stuffed animals on those

That's what I thought when I saw how disappointingly small it was. I immediately thought of a kids birthday or kindergarten class.

Made me think of simply nailogical and her yogurt lid nail designs 😅

Did the math conversion of inches to centimeters; 7(inches) x 2.54 = 17.78(centimeters).

Omg that would be so cute

Haha, you’ve never painted with kids, have you 😄. There’s no way a kid is keeping any paint on that tiny thing.

Agreed get some daler rowney or cotmam

@@goronslime1469 yes cotman was my first real watercolours and now watercolour is my favourite medium :)

Agreed. Even just Crayola watercolours are better than crap like that.

Buy Sonett Watercolors . They are honeybased , fullpan and extremely cheap

All of my water colors as a kid had those little specks 0n0

It would be the perfect size for a child beginner artist

It's the perfect size for nail art. It should be listed in nail art supplies, not fine art supplies. @@robinhr5860

For some reason I own a higher quality version of that watercolor set. 2 of them actually

But why not just get a low end name brand like Crayola, Prang, etc.? I grew up with those and they were decent. Not fine art quality but not "why is there no color when I paint things?" sadness.

Looked like a tiny sketchbook I have, too.

Wow.

Damn we’re exposing ALL the sellers today, this is good stuff.

I thought it looked like a pocket sized sketchbook.

Ikr!!

Dude I know right!! 🤯 like HOW!!

@@FrenchFry-pu2gs yea 😃

Ikr she’s so positive 🤧

@lia_berry 🍓 The true heros of online shopping X'D

ty for the lesson mom

heyyy

Same!

i had the same thought, i had those kinds of watercolors except mine was so much more chalky feeling and i thought i was just really damn bad at watercolor. then when i switch to a better more quality beginner grade watercolor, i fell inlove with the medium. (the watercolor that i got was sakura koi watercolor, it was abit pricey in my country but it was so worth it especially if you start with the 12 palette which is the cheapest)

Same though it was given to me as a gift so I really couldn't complain

Dead order these and now I wish I saw this video before buying them...

I haven't used better quality watercolor but I actually like my set a lot. there's limitations but idk i just like them. cheap yes but I've figured out how to use them decently.

Troom troom*

@@RinzBeanz just edit the comment

@NAM3L3SS

why do you watch troom troom

why do i love crappy ones most of the time

like crayola, stuff from asda and stuff

yeah true!

true

Thank you for saying this, it's so true

Ye i was thinking we should get ray to see this

Lol, I love the reviews on Amazon from people complaining because the product is doing what it’s supposed to 😄. I recently bought a solar fountain for my garden and someone gave it a one star review because they didn’t like that it shot water up and some splashed on to their decking. Hello, It’s A Fountain! Lol 😂

@@rubybuttons668 oh lol .

@@rubybuttons668 yes omg it's like people don't read about or even look at the product they're buying! Like I got some nice open-back headphones a while ago, so the backs of the cups are a metal grid and provide no sound isolation at all. The box even said "headphones for indoor listening," yet most negative reviews were like "omg this is leaking so much sound! Horrible, everyone on the bus stared at me!"

Pff-

Lol

I swear, I love reading reviews from people that literally have no clue how the thing they bought works and thus assume it's terrible because they don't have any common sense.

@@kattriella1331 they annoy me so much... 😖😖

PFFFT- BHAHAHA lol 😂😭😭😭😭

STHOPPPP-

It is

I love re's

It's likely something like corn starch to get it to hold its shape while in the package. Gotta make it look nice to make the people buy it.

It's glue and even some expensive brands do it. It's more for protection than looks but looks too.

One of my art teachers was named Mrs. Wolfe, so for a second I was very, very confused as to why you would bring up my 5th grade art teacher who was never even on the channel. Then remembered Ms. Wolfie

My art teacher was named Mrs. Wolf (not sure how she spelled it) I had her in 4th and 5th grade

sure what should we do!!?

@@SuperRaedizzle definitely something more difficult like an abstract piece or something like that!

@@SuperRaedizzle maybe she could give you a quiz on some old paintings to see if you know them and who made them? I love your channel so much ❤️

very sure that what the seller did with the palette is illegal as well. false advertising all the way on that one.

@@katrinschirmer8018 Someone pointed out, it was a measurement confusion. They put inches instead of centimeters. 17 cm is 7 inches. So not really false advertising; most likely a typo.

Actually, it's not illegal. As long as you don't claim to be the manufacturer and have a business license, you can pretty much sell/resell everything anywhere. My best friend's grandma owns a tourist trap in some sad little mountain town and resells dollar store decoration. Shady, overpriced and morally questionable but not illegal🤣

It’s definitely not illegal, reselling is the way all big stores make their money. They literally bought the colored pencils for pennies and marked them up to a couple dollars.

Not illegal, you cab charge what you like. The procurement may not be legal, but the price is. That would be silly.

i have her supplies but didn't know how to use them ._.

Your probably gay then

Ohhh that makes sense

or maybe a younger kid that wants to play pretend artist or something. like buy a cheap small canvas, and cheap paints and let the kid go ham.

@@ghoulchan7525 Truee, I would have loved to have something like this in 1st-2nd grade!

Or as that one reviewer said, used as a makeup palette. The problem isn't with the item, but the listing/seller. I wonder if the 17" measurement on the listing was simply a typo or whether it was deliberately misleading?

@@Littlewings1211 probably misleading on purpose, even the photo's since i know tiny sketchbooks like that exist. but we were trying to make a positive out of a negative of the situation. so if you knew beforehand it was gonna be that small but bought it anyway. i saw the size in the video and thought "oh hey this might be a good size for a child."

@@ghoulchan7525 I never said anything negative, I wondered whether it could be a typo, which is actually giving the benefit of the doubt and being positive rather than assuming the negative that the listing was deliberately misleading. The images could just be generic ones they have taken off the Internet showing a clear acrylic palette because they don't want to/can't set up and take their own photos of the item (a lot of listings do this to save time or because they don't have the skills to do it themselves). I also continued to find a positive alternative use for it by reiterating the comment from the other reviewer who said that they bought it to use as a makeup palette, although I wonder if they bought it thinking that they were buying a 17" palette for mixing makeup on? Either way I said nothing negative at all.

That is literally home made journal -fold 11x17 paper, add a construction paper cover and staple them in the middle. Considering it is only "10 sheets", it probably cost less $1 to make. Scam.

She does that every time, such a queen

yea and it took her 20 minutes

I don't have a printer 🧍🏻‍♀️

@@moonchild8477 they mean the paper

Can confirm this, my school requires sketchbooks for all students (art class is mandatory) and the art teacher actually brings student-quality thingd

@@mizhasthebiz damn art class is mandatory? lucky. for us it was optional for 6th and 7th grade and then removed

tjose watercolors and sketchbook had equal/worse quality than the art supplies less than 50 cents usd

@@mizhasthebiz is art class free at school?

@@TheGudda724 just wanted to say your profile is amazing

we don't have target in my country and we buy that stuff somewhere else, not waste ten times the money to buy it from usa fhdjjd and especially since dollars are a hundred times larger than our currency so everything americans find cheap/average in price would be on the more expensive side over here

@@ukrivu same

That argument is so weak. If they don't have access to a Target, they'll have a similar (or better) item nearby. Like Walmart or Dollar General. Or any number of local shops. Most of the time, if they don't have it available, you probably don't need it.

@@chatboulon743 It honestly depends where you live. I've been to towns where their "local shops" were essentially a half baked grocery store inside a gas station with just the basics regarding art supplies(notebooks/pens/pencils), a supply store, and 1-3 bars. The closest walmart was a 1-2 hour drive, and just to get to school was a 30-45 minute bus drive to a different county(if you're lucky). This is especially true in farm areas. Its more time/cost effective to just find some art/school supplies for your kids online have them shipped to your house. Not to mention these areas don't have any public transport, so buying online is how most people make do. As to the ethics of reselling, it depends. If they're like the people who bought a shit ton of cleaning products or gaming consoles to cause a shortage and then upcharging people by $50-$300 they're trash. If its an item that theres multiple options to buy at an affordable price, then its fine.

Don't feel bad. I'd rather start with cheap, crappy supplies to work on my technique than waste hundreds of dollars to "get good" on quality product.

SAME! Though for my school it was like a mix between that, and also shit like "what was something you did this weekend" type shit, and wed have to draw it, write a sentence, and then read it aloud in class

Well i’m not hating but i think they’re ohuhu markers

@@defokurtkobain yeah ur right it was just for the laughs
