Too good to be true price on Gaffer's Tape???

qwerty123

This pricing seems too good to be true: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000N4LV6A?tag=blogger-10-20

24 rolls of 3M gaffers tape at only over $30!!?!?

Usually when things are too good to be true, they are. But what am I missing here?

Maybe this: the picture and the technical details say that it is a case of 24 rolls, BUT the product specifications say its only 1 "item package quantity" and that it only weighs 1.9 pounds.... hmmmm.... probably a mistake on amazon's part...?

You save 98% :-)

yeah, 98% of what could've been time better spent on something else ;-)

Alternatively, you can buy ONE very expensive roll: http://www.amazon.com/3M-Cloth-Gaffers-6910-Silver/dp/B000SPHPFU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1315896199&sr=8-1

Hilarious....

No.
You just will be proud.
If you have too much money and do not know where to put them, buy such rolls :-)

Dudes... Get the tape now... no joke. Does anyone here have any idea how much studios spend on this stuff...? Not to mention theatre productions... Get the tape... Only issue is that its not Nashua!

Good Gaff is like $15 per roll...

+ You never know when you will need it for tripods or camera stabilizers... what about if you need to make an extension tube in central Africa out of a toilet roll centre? Exactly- Gaffer!

UPDATE: AHHH!! Amazon can't ship to Gaffer tape to Australia! Fascists!

Too good to be true.

Actual seller is Parts-Express. They are likely to send only one tape and claim that the Amazon listing was wrong.

Don't worry everyone,.. it wasn't Nashua... so no need to start a don't cry for gaffer tape thread...

Just buy Nashua in bulk and save... :D

Heh. Well, if anyone does buy the too-good-to-be true tape and you miraculously get 24 rolls, let us know!

I just called the company up and they said it's a mistake so
unfortunately we can all keep on dreaming about deals of that magnitude.

Does anyone know of a seller for Nashua gaffer tape in or to the UK? Gaffer tape in general just seems hard to google for over here, it keeps coming up with duct tape only.

Howdy, Stranger!
