Default Kamasan hooks

Hi, anyone know where to get Kamasan 100 quantities for under £5, O Reilly does not list them now and the best price seems to be around £6.90 elsewhere. I am looking for 500 mixed.
Regards Blithfield

Tightlines Direct have them for a fiver per 100 but the postage costs might put you off. I was in the Tightlines shop yesterday and picked up a couple of hundred.

Default Fishtec

Fishtec have them at £5 per 100, £4.50 if you join the discount club. They come in ziplok bags rather than boxes but does that matter?

These things are made in China in Hainan Province and the base price is around $2.75 per 1000 . You can likely buy British Sprite of far higher intrinsic quality for around £6.00 per 100 - why gamble on duff Chinese hardening ?
