Default Double sided tape from China

Has anyone bought these from China. The price is so low - 10 rolls for $3.00 but it doesn't say what the yardage is.

Sounds too good to be true! I pay that for one roll at LSS.

You might just give it a try for only $3! If it doesn't work out, just tell yourself you had a lunch at McDonalds, lol.

I used to get super cheap double sided tape when we lived in Asia - I'm finding that it gets brittle and loses its stick after a couple of years.

Girl your going to pay too much. I got 10 rolls for $2.40.

I really like the tape. It is good quality. I have just restocked. I have been using the tape for a couple of years now. Nothing has fallen apart.

Yardage is 30ft. All my tape comes in individual packages wrapped nicely. You are not stuck with 10 individual rolls all in one package.

I buy xpress it tape at LSS for $2.75 a roll, but its 55 yards, so 165 ft. Still costs more, but I like buying local and if I run out, I can just go pick up a roll. She has widths of 1/8", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", and 2". The $2.75 is 1/4".

I looked on Ebay and found several vendors selling cheap double sided tape. Here is one that comes out to $3.03 for 10 rolls with free shipping:

1/5/10 Rolls of 6mm Double Sided Super Strong Adhesive Tape for DIY Craft 9m US | eBay

Here's where I bought my tape last month- 10 Rolls of 6mm Double Sided Super Strong Adhesive Tape for DIY Craft Brand New | eBay

I bought the 1/4 inch. I do buy it in several widths. I use 1/4 the most. It is a tad bit under 1/4 inch.

DeeAnn, since you have tried and tested from your vendor.......do you have a link that you can share?


TIA!!!
