Sale on strings.

I just can't.... My string inventory rivals a small shop....
I feel you on that. I don’t need strings for a good long time. I haven’t bought new strings from a store in a dozen years.
...unless it's TI jazz flats. I put my only set of 5 on a Sterling Ray 5 MM where they are Amazing, want to try another but the price seems to have jumped since Nov. (and the prognosis is not good) but is under $200 still a deal considering long lifespan of flats and no other flat is as flexible and toneful? they must be former alchemists ova there
I'm also in the "too many strings already" camp, but at $12.50 per 4-pack I couldn't resist. I bought a couple of twin packs of EXL160TP Mediums 50 - 105. And it seems I wasn't charged any sales tax either. 
At Amazon, 1 set of the same strings are $23.99 plus tax!
So the flash price is HALF of what Amazon is currently charging. That's hard to beat.

They're $121 on Amazon right now for the 5-string set from the cheapest US seller.
I found that too but $110.67 Amazon from a British importer. A no brainer at that price.
Ordered some D'Addario strings on Jan 22nd and there's still no sign of them. No updates on USPS tracking either. 
That doesn't inspire confidence.
I think aliens have abducted my strings!!
If they ever arrive, they will probably have been cryogenically treated from the cold weather.
