ok granted 4.95 isn't a lot of money by any means, but I'm supprised that I haven't been able to find it any cheaper, or find it at all for that matter, other than on ebay. So I thought I would put it out here and see if anyone has seen it on any of the other sites they use.
And by the way I LOVE this tool, I originally received it in a kit I bought on ebay that came with that, a black stick and a few other cheapy pry tools that broke in a couple days, the black stick is still useable but is getting pretty blunted. If anyone knows where I can get those cheap would be nice to know too.
But the blue one is great for running along the seams of laptops and tons of other stuff because of its wide angle, its the best I've found so far.
So anyways if anyone know where i can get this cheaper that the ones I found on ebay, it would make you my hero! :)

THanks,
Chad
 
Cheaper than $4.95 including shipping?

Would $3.95 be a winner? Save a buck but spend how long to do it?

How much cheaper would it have to be to be worth spending any amount of time trying to find that great deal?

Click buy-it-now at $4.95 and spend the next 1/2 hour tweaking your Adwords (or some other marketing activity). Time better spent.
 
And we bitch about clients nickel and diming us.. :p

Pay up man, and be done with it :)

And Scott, now now.. I know pennies make pounds, and pounds make a lot of excess weight, but still lol
 
You know that guitar picks are mighty cheap AND they come in many thicknesses.

So are those fake credit cards in the junk mail.. cut to size and shape too. Save your old membership cards from drug stores and stuff too.. those are free. :D
 
I agree with the last poster, you're being really cheap. :D By the way I don't like those plastic spudgers, they wear out. If you are good with your prying use these

They last forever, never wear out. I only have a couple of them because I mislay them :o

I agree, the metal ones are great, and they do last forever, but the one I'm looking for has a wide angle which really makes it easy to slide down the seams of laptops in one shot and open the whole thing. plus I always get a little nervous with metal on plastic, I DO love the mental ones for popping out keyboards though! Side note I haven't found anything better than a blank from a tower expansion slot for pressing the little clips at the top of keyboards. :)
 
wow guys, I was mostly just throwing this out there as a conversation starter...
Honestly the price seems high for a single piece of plastic, I mean I got my vga switcher for only a buck more and I can't belive a single plastic tool is almost as much is all I'm saying lol. So I thought I would toss it out there to see if anyone else had run across 'em for less. :)

You just have to know when you are forcing against something when using the metal ones. I've lost count the number of plastic ones I've gone through.
 
I've always wondered..I don't do this kind of work but what about...dashboard pry tools...the kind for cars. They are tough, plastic, pretty thin, and easily obtainable?
