I don't. The only time similar oil bottlers use the same pricing on two different formulas, is when one is their High Mileage version, or a value=priced formula is carried. But usually the value-priced oil is a few dollars cheaper.
With new ownership of Valvoline, I'd expect them to try a three price tier (Advanced / EP / R&P). The stores around Saudi Arabia region may already carry 3. Need home delivery there?...... an AI or real camel may bring it.
Please tip camels accordingly with food.

It can be purchased on Amazon at either $35.83 each or $29.94 each when purchased as a 3 pack. The price for this product is not necessarily outrageous and like KCJeep said, if it ends up at Walmart, it will likely be priced around the EP.
The likely reason why there's no "mileage guarantee" is because if this oil indeed cleans, you don't want that junk going around the engine, possibly plugging up the filter for 10k or 20k miles. Based on the TBN alone, I wouldn't want to run it that long with out UOA's along the way. This is not marketed as an extended service product.
ValvolineGlobal offers buy 1 get one at 50% off along with various $5-10 dollar off coupons for signing up. Free shipping after a reasonable purchase price threshold. I have used them a couple times and have been happy with the prices and ship time. I imagine that Walmart is competitive on pricing on existing oils and this oil will fall into that frame after some time. Not having to go to walmart is a positive for me but your results may vary.
I saw it at Meijer the other day, and it was priced the same as the EP. I can't remember if it was $29,99 or $31.99
What has me confused, EP is more money than Advanced, and yet advanced has more of an ad pack?
Where are you getting this information? I have searched the forums for a VOA of Valvoline Advanced to verify what you stated, but all I can find is an old one from 2018 before the formulation changed, so that can't be used as a basis for the statement you made. I may have missed it. Did you find a VOA somewhere else? Could you link it?

Thanks. That is the high mileage not the standard Advanced.
He has it all on there
But he only shows the VOA for the high mileage
He tells you the numbers for the advanced. The two Max lifes and also the extended
I don’t go by what someone tells me…I want to see it. This guy is not very popular here, so I am NOT going to take his word for it. I want to see the VOA.
I don't know if he would lie about that.. I have caught him in a lie before... Maybe not a lie but he was definitely wrong about something.. LOL..
You are correct…I went through the video slowly and saw it. It does not have a better add pack than the 5w30 EP.
It has more Molly in it, and I thought more zinc
Contrary to popular opinion, moar is not always better. It’s the complete formulation, and the certifications it meets that matter.
Certifications they're the same aren't they? But I do see what you're saying..Contrary to popular opinion, moar is not always better. It’s the complete formulation, and the certifications it meets that matter.
