i am looking for 3 x 1600ft cans please.
Preferably plastic.
I dont need spools.

Someone was advertising new ones on Ebay, but they cost more than if you bought a spool with can.

I have 100s of spools and cans

Regarding David's comment above, I sent him a PM the next day (22nd) with an enquiry for some 1600ft blue Tuscan cans. The PM site says "read by recipient", but no reply as yet.

Perhaps David might care to explain.

Well, folks, David has now sent me a PM in which he complains that I never recommend him as a seller, and finishes with the above quote.
I now leave it for members to make their own judgement.

David is his own worst enemy. He jumps on posts to promote his sales and then fails to deliver. Pity because he obviously has a great deal of nice cine items available, but he is totally unreliable on delivery and communication. I think that his problem is that he has too many other business interests impacting on his cine sales offers. From my experience - NOT recommended.
