Buying guitar picks!!!!

Unread post by i-am-me » Sun Mar 14, 2004 7:26 pm

okay...so i'm too damn lazy to get off my ass and go to a store to get some picks, so i'm doing it off teh internet. and its very important that i get picks, cause i have zero now. lo.

now my question: how much is reasonable for picks. i found a place that sends dunlop tortex picks for .25 cents each. well, a dollar for 4 of em, but you get the idea. so i'm wondering, before i buy, is that too much? is that a good deal? any help much appreciated. thanks guys.

okay..actually i just found one that will give me 72 for twenty bucks with shipping. for 72 from the place i found before it would be like 22 bucks. i know, small difference, but every dollar counts. haha.

so how's that? still to expensive for picks?

its 22 dollars for 84 picks. and that's with 5 dollars shipping. so that would come out to 17 dolalrs for 84 picks. technically, that's less than a quarter per pick now isn't it matty?

With that many picks you could have enough for a life time supply and still be able to sell the rest for a profit....I go through about 12 a year. :)
