Anyone looking for a box of new Quantegy 456 tape ?

[cjacek]

I was able to secure a couple of boxes of the Quantegy 456 1/4" x 10.5" x 2500' tape (10 tapes per box). These are all new and most recent stock (newest batch) and came in a sealed box from a Quantegy distributor here in town. (I just opened the box to take some picts and show its contents). Call me nuts but I basically bought out their entire remaining 456 stock - 2 boxes. Will have to either sell or auction off the one box, to finance my other box! LOL!! Anyway, here's some photos. If anyone's interested then let me know. Make me an offer. If this fails then I'll eBay it sometime next week or thereafter. God help us all ..

Looking at the date, on the box, which seems to be the 120th day of 2003, and then reviewing my own words from the original post, I feel I probably mis-spoke about the tapes being "most recent" and "newest". They are new, for sure, and not old at all, but I wasn't precise. If the date is correct, as I assume I deciphered correctly, then I should have perhaps used different language to describe their "life". I would have said something like this: The tapes I picked up from a distibutor here locally a couple of days ago. It's all they had left. This batch dates April, 2003.

Anyway, my bad and apologies to all if any offence was taken.

Daniel,

I was just going to send you an email. They are from 2003, but I would have no problem calling that "newest." They are new as tape goes. If it's unopened and only a few years old, I call it new.

If anyone's interested, I may sell off one at a time.

$35 USD per tape + shipping. (If via PayPal then an additional 2.9% for their fees).

Thanks,

Daniel

I was even told (by ARP Dave) that I should keep 'em . Tempting indeed but .... I spent so much money on extra gear and tapes I bought recently, that it's getting ridiculous and expensive! Yeah, I may eBay them but am now wondering if I should do it one by one or the whole lot ...

Thanks Tim,

Daniel

I would probably do one or two at a time. It takes more time, but you spread them around that way. I don't know though, with the way things are in the tape world it's a tough call.
