Tridon Multi-Clips

G'day All
New member, first post.
The title clips used to be sold at the ME Exhibition some 20 or so years ago. They are quite brilliant as a design, with uses limited only by the imagination!!! Couldn't find them for many years and then, courtesy of Google, found a present-day supplier. Problem - their normal minimum order is 10,000!! The sales gentleman kindly agreed an order of 2 dozen and duly sent same, but, I cannot find anyone who sells them retail. If the wholesaler is selling in those sorts of quantities, somebody must be buying them, so, .... anyone out there know of a RETAIL source, please?
TIA

CJ,...a photo would be helpful, personally I have never heard of these... sound useful.
John.

PS...
just done a ''GOOGLE'' and found this...

www.zeroclips.com/multiclip.htm

dont believe I have ever seen the like in my travels.

Have just contacted ''Zero Clips Ltd'' who are the sole suppliers for these apparently...anyone interested in obtaining the clips in whatever quantity can contact...Norman Lee...or...Steven Lewis
All the best for now,
John.

Damn, we only got 1915 members on here so far! Oh 5 apiece don't seem too bad ;D

Ah, Ty-wraps also do a reusable.

Thank you John, yes, those are the people - and very helpful too.
As I mentioned, I got my originals at the ME Ex in packs of two (for 50P)!!.
They are exceptionally useful for all sorts of things - a tourniquet for instance, should the need arise!! ;D A thread in another ME forum was looking for methods of attaching a die grinder to the cross-slide - ideal for that, and so on ...
I now have enough to keep me going for a couple of years or so but it seems a pity that they are no longer readily available at retail outlets in the sort of quantities which would suit individual purchase.

They do look useful.
I'm in if there is going to be enough interested for a bulk purchase providing the price is right.
