Wax Prices

[Propolis30]

Just curious....what does wax usually sell for per pound.

[Brian Suchan]

wholesale I heard as high as $1.75 this was late winter early spring. not sure what it is worth now

[db_land]

I sold some for $3 per lb a couple of years ago and plan on asking $5/lb for some that will be in a gift shop type business.

[suprstakr]

I paid $9.00 for a lb.at a craft store and it was dark amber in color

I know you can order it from MannLake for about $5.30 a pound. I was just curious as to what beekeepers sell theirs for.

[John Cunningham]

I sell cleaned, molded wax in flea markets and festivals. 1 oz. for 75 cents, 1/2 lb. for $3 and 1 lb for $5. People who know what it is grab it, most people ask what it is used for. Have a list ready.

I have sold over a ton of it on ebay @ 4.00 per pound.I was buying it from another much bigger beek for 2.00 per pound. That said another ebay started selling it for 3.25 per pound so I couldnt be competive and stopped selling it there. Now I sell it after it is clean in octagon molds for 5.00 per pound... Rick

you can get as much as the buyer will pay. I use no chemicals and its considered organic or close to it as possible. I use most all I make in my foundations but clean wax is hard to come by.
