Ha! That was easy! I have none, zip, notta one! Secretly wishing I had some, you know, just to "try" (lol) but still resisting. They are so not in my budget.
I bought a bunch before the price went up and will have to wait now until after the new year to add to my collection. I can't seem to colour anything anymore unless I use my copics.
I thought I had around 125 of them, imagine my shock when I just now counted the colors I don't have on my chart and figured out I have 258!!
How did that happen?!! lol
I have a very few pale, pastel colors, purchased ONE at a time with my trusty coupon at Hobby Lobby. I use them with my Sharpies, Bics, and Shinhan Touch Twin markers with great success.

This is so funny! I thought I was the only one who "minimized" the amount of stuff I have.

I have all of them. I am one of those people who when I find something that I like I have to get all of them. I do that with a lot of my stamping toys.
I always swore that I wouldn't get started with Copics as I have no artistic ability, but I began taking classes at my local LSS this year and have almost 100 and wanting more. That is where my dollars are going now as I buy little else. Am retired and rarely buy clothes or shoes so I can spend more on craft supplies.

Same here. Once I started taking classes, I am using more of my older stamps that I bought years ago, tried coloring with markers such as Tombow, but hated how they looked. So those stamps got pushed to the back, but now that I finally gave copics a try, I am using them more often. I just counted and I have 153. I have just a few more on my list, then I will start getting the refills. My LSS will refill for a nominal charge, but that doesn't help when I am stamping in the evenings. And since that was one of the lures of the copics (refillable) I figured I better start investing in the refills. :p
I have almost all of them... I didn't get the two darkest markers in each gray tone. I do have the fluorescent markers and I use them quite a bit on retro looking, 70's type cards.
I counted and I have 43. I am happy with them and can still blend to get pretty much whatever color I need. I need some reds but don't use that color too often so haven't figured out exactly which I want. I recently won a $100 gc with California Paper Goods and used it all on Copics :-)

I have had about about 15 for over a year now. I never really used them - or my bic markits and prismacolors. Then lately I have been buying more cutesy open stamps and I have finally started to attempt to color. I can feel myself getting hooked. I just placed an order for about 30 more. It definitely is a slippery slope once you start using them.
I just have the Copic blending one to try with the Bic Mark-Its.
Does that work to blend the bic? I use mine mostly to take color away and texturize different areas. It's fun to take the refill and put a little on a corner of an old washcloth and dab on what you have just colored. Gives it a different look.
None here either. I've played with a couple at a local craft store and couldn't get the hang of them. But that could be due to the scrap paper they had out to try them with, couldn't blend those things to save my life!
I have 50, but never have the right color! I have bought most of them one at a time with 40% coupon at Hobby Lobby. What Copic Club? I love using them. The reason I started buying them was because they don't smear like SU! markers. But after I started using them, then i had to start getting stamps or images that you could color! Always something else!
Holy crap - I just counted mine and I'm shocked! I have 202 - I had NO idea I had that many! It doesn't look like that many when they're in the little cubby. Of course I accumulated them - didn't buy all at once.
I have all of them.........I have been using them since '08. Did it take me awhile to collect them? Well, I started purchasing in May and had them all by the beginning of July when I took the Copic Certification class! ;);)
Just found it and I love it....I am in the other thread also. I began to get hooked on Copics not to long ago after I said I NEVER WOULD BUY THEM!!! LOL That went out the window. I agree I got some great deals on SC on buying them. Plus Micheal's had them Buy one get one 1/2 off last week and I got another 17 of them.
I made the ArtBin storage that was posted on the other thread and loved it. Than I saw Copic came out with a new 'wallet" that holds 300 and something of them. Was gonna buy it at my LSS for $99 with 10% off, than I found it on Oozak for 69.99. Got it the other day....YIPPIE!!!
I have a few florescent ones and dont care for them. I think I am gonna sell them tho, they give me a headache...LOL

I dont think I will ever have them all being I think alot of them are pretty close in colors. I will buy them also from Oozak being he seems to be the cheapest for the sketches. I think it is like $4.66 each. Free shipping over $50 too. I found that I have about 4 doubles too, gonna sell them. Does anyone else have any doubles to sell?? Melissa

I have 3-4 LSS near me, and one has a refil bar its called. It is $1.00 to refill the markers. Is that a good price??? Melissa
