I know we're not supposed to post eBay auctions, so I won't. I got tired of seeing the ridiculous prices for Velcro ties for my loose cables and did some looking around. I just got delivered (free) a 100 pack of Velcro brand 8" ties for $9.99. Good hunting! |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: Upstate NY | | The Home Depot deal is essentially the same....... $4.97 for 50 vs. $9.95 for 100. The only difference is I didn't have to pay sales tax or actually go and get them, they shipped free. Either way these are the way to go! 8 in. x 1/2 in. Reusable Ties (50-Pack)-90924 at The Home Depot |

I got a few longer ones I ordered when buying other stuff for some long speaker cables, and I even use a white-out pen and write on them how long the cable is. Works like a charm.
And got these plastic ratchet claw type clamps for larger electrical cables.
I recently got all new mic cables for the band (we use them to link LED lighting, as well) and I used a bunch of these to make a sub snake tying seven 40’ mic cables together every 10/12 inches. If I needed to replace or add a cable someday, it wouldn’t be too difficult.
I can’t imagine what it would have cost me, what some places want for these things. They may have better/bigger ones, but these do the job perfectly well, and seem to not be wearing out or going bad in any way after many hundreds of wrap/unwraps.
