  • OMG that price is insane!

    • +2

      30,000 piece "tool kit" for twenty bucks? bargain of the century!

      • The only reason I clicked on this deal was to make a toolkit reference but you beat me to it lol

  • +8

    Give me a sec to work out what I am going to do with my 30,000 cable ties.

  • +10

    Limited stock

    Well that's what happens when you give away 30,000 cable ties

  • +7

    Woo. 13 kilograms worth of cable ties.

    I can tie up a lot of people with this.

  • +1

    Well be careful with Freight costs outside Victoria. 20kg for $15 whereas outside VIC its $16 for 5kg. Given these ties are 13-16kg then the freight doubles or triples unless in VIC

    • Glad I read that, I didnt think to look. But it makes the 20$ ties about $65, which is still amazingly cheap really, but im not sure i would use 15kg's of cable ties in my own life time unless I made it one of my life goals.

      Maybe leave them to someone in the will.

  • Nice deal, Would be surprised if they have much stock or want to deal with a bunch of individual buyers

  • +29

    Freight to Wolf Creek?

  • is the site safe?? these people legit?

    • +16

      If you'll find yourself alone, in a dark alley and tied up the answer was NO.

  • +4

    I have dealt with these guys for over 25 years…quite legit
    they still operate the "original" dos website….lol

    they will normally actually ring for creditcard details if you don't supply them.

    Their location is the old "Rod Irving" building in Clayton

    • +2

      I tell ya the website is about 1,000 times more useful than some of the new fandangled piles of #%%^ that I've seen about the place! Please - don't change :)

    • wonder if pickup is available

      • yes pickup is fine.

    • "dos", amusing… it certainly has a quaint rustic charm about it…

      The colour scheme is utterly horrific though. If you go to its home page, the menu on the side is really thin black text on a dark blue background. So very painful to read.

  • +3

    they make good handcuffs

    People be careful here. The item count in the 30,000 pc cable tie set is being jacked up by including at least 10,000 spanners, sockets, screwdrivers and other useless items ;)

    • +1

      Funniest comment of the year for mine :)
      Well played!

  • Still have heaps of cable ties from previous tool set deals :-(

  • +2

    Cable tie those pesky Census collectors!

  • How much is just one?

    • I have a feeling that shipping will "kill it"

  • +7

    Who wants to split the offer with me?
    I only need 5.

    • +2

      You just gotta find 6,000 folk interested in splitting…

  • I can only see two sizes - 100mm and 140mm?

    • See the bigger picture. If you connected all the cable ties from one pack together, you could cabletie Rockby to the Synchrotron.

  • +3

    I have one red paperclip. Can i swap that for 30000 cable ties?

  • why are white ones cheaper than black ones?

    • +7

      Apar-tied

    • +2

      White ones typically ate not UV stabilised add they don't have carbon in them, so they don't last long in the sun.

  • Price match with Masters? hahaha
    Pretty much a lifetime supply of ties for the average household

  • +2

    This should steal me a few lifetimes. Whoops, I mean that should last me a lifetime

  • This is a bloody ripper deal, enough cable ties to last me exactly 2 more custom desktop PC builds!

    … Cable management is a bitch.

  • +2

    are these reusable?

    • By design no. But with a blade or very small flat blade *screwdriver, and a bit of patience, or skill, you can undo them.

  • 16kg of zip ties.. My god.

  • +1

    I just figured out, the black 140mm cable ties are a rip off…

    The white 100mm ones add up to about 3km of cable tie, for $16 ~ 0.5c per meter…

    The black 140mm ones add up to only 2.8km and cost $20 ~ 0.7c per meter! What a price hike! ;)

    They should have had a competition to give away one box of ties to the person who can think of up the most imaginative use for making one 3km stretch of cable tie.

    • Space elevator.

      You said imaginative, not practical or realistic. Oh and you'll need about 100x as much.

    • I know youre joking but the longer zip ties would have more zipping space and less of the tail and heads over all he he

  • how much is shipping to Sydney?

  • Thanks bought 20k of the 140x3.6mm. not sure what I'm doing with then yet but should be fun
    Will pick up in store later today!

  • +2

    I'm buying some of these for muck up day at school should be good fun and a pain to remove

  • +2

    Just picked up my box of 30000…

    Smaller box than I expected. Still, I'm gonna tie everything together… Everything!

  • Page doesn't load for me. Did I miss the deal?

  • Lady from rockby just called to get credit card details. terrible service. very pushy. didnt answer my questions - just wanted my credit card details.
    Hopefully arrives soon and dont have to deal with her again!

  • I am not very tall, neither is my… ahem… post - does that mean I pay more, or less?

    Also, surely if any deal was 'Broden-friendly' this would be it!
