The Olaplex TSV isn't a super deal, the #4 and #5 (shampoo and conditioner) are very small, 3.3 ounce, not the 8.5 ounce sizes.
I disagree. The supersize Olaplex #3 sells for $56 at the site where I get my color and it's not even currently available in that size. The smaller size which would be the size of the shampoo in this kit sells for $28. 5.2 oz. of the #0 sells for $28. The 3.3 oz Shampoo and Conditioner are a little less than half the 8.5 oz that sells for $28, so say $10 each. That adds up to $104. You might be able to find it cheaper elsewhere like Amazon, but that is one product I really don't trust Amazon not to have counterfeit prodcuts for since it is such a popular product. Of course, I would get free S/H at that site, but I still consider it a good deal.
And, up until very recently, I wasn't even able to get these products on the site. Last time I ordered color, I was only able to get the #1 & #2 in single use packets. Those are used as part of the coloring process, and a single use packet was $17. A small set of #1 & #2 that looks rather like travel sizes sells for $130. Of course, you won't see those on QVC since they are meant to be used by a professional just like my color.
I have never even used the shampoo and conditioner and am not even sure I will, and for me it's still a good deal, as much for the fact that I can actually get the products as it is the price. If I don't get them due to shipping problems, QVC will have to refund me and I won't be out anything.
