With shipping, tax, handling fee, adds up to $45 ($4.50 per tape). Isn't it cheaper at Costco?

Just a quick note, if you order from ecost.com online they hit you with a "processing fee", but if you call them the CSRs have the authority to waive the processing fee. I've bought quite a bit from them both online and over the phone. Usually get good service, but they had problems with some higher end gear - said they could get the GY-DV500/DV5000/DV3000, then the could, then they couldn't. I've been satisfied with what I've bought with them though.... I've spoken with Travis Poole in the past, and have bought quite a bit of JVC tape from them.

3.99 at tape resources + free rack A+ [In reply to] Can't Post

www.taperesources.com
probably one of the cheapest places to get tape. Quite possibly the best customer service ive ever seen. placed dozens of orders with them over the past few years and never once had a problem.
hope that helps!
