Do NOT buy used tape!

It just isn't worth the risk, as new tape is still being manufactured.

Or get pancakes if you have spare empty reels / boxes.

Not that we can get any 1/2" over in Europe despite sending me sending Emails to various suppliers & retailers!

I take it you mean 1/2" pancake? Studiospares seem to have the full reels in stock.

I've written to them as well as many others including RMG themselves, only seems that they are available in the US? Too much shipping costs & import tax / VAT for that to be a serious option!

I've got enough old spare reels courtesy of Ampex & their sticky shed syndrome!

Can't even find the price of a carton (6 pack) of pancakes either?

Pancake alert!

Finally found some RMG 1/2" SM 911 / SM 900 pancakes this side of the pond!

LPR 35 also in stock & all sizes 900/911 available.

Seems there in Gloucester. Prices about the same as Studiospares.

Time to raid my piggy bank!

Damn, damn, damn. That's just an hour after I bought a full metal spool.

I'll have to remember them for next month...
