Apparently you guys don't have a Harbor Freight store nearby.
1200 ties for $9.99 ($12.99 at Overstock for 1100)
Another set - 1000 for $9.99 ($12.99 at Overstock for 1100)
170 piece u-clip and screw set - $7.99 ($12.99 at Overstock for same thing)
That's how places like Overstock make money. The prices are better than Wal-Mart but not better than specialty places. I used to buy from Harbor Freight by mail order, and when I moved here I found a Harbor Freight store about 3 miles from the house! I love it!
Back to the top for those that missed it. And how about a +/plus rating if you found this helpful.
Ya know, you never seize to amaze me!!! First you trash quite a few threads trying to stir things up, making people rate you unfavorably. Then you post links for products that aren't really a great deal, which should have been posted in Off Topic in the first place. And now you post, asking people to rate you with a +, which by the way, is pretty much against the rules here on the Forum.
There are better ways to change people's opinion of you, just remember, it ain't going to happen over night.

Looks like you were Wrong AGAIN Mr. Mastermind.
Mastermind, just a few days ago you were running around to every thread throwing flames and arrows. Beating your chest like some monkey............ today we find you in the alley behind the shopping center trying to sell items out of the dumpster for a (+)
Yeah, I thought about leaving you alone down here. I fact I have left you alone for a couple of days. But then I thought about it, if the rolls were reversed, you'd still be in there kicking away.
Oh the Humanity........

POS., I thought I'd add a Smiley Face so you'd think I was just kidding around (but I'm not)

The world and internet is extremely vast and I'm sure there are stores with prices lower than both overstock and harbor freight that neither of us are currently aware of. However, if nothing else my overstock links served as a point of reference which also prompt you to post links with even lower prices. But remember, lower initial price is but one component. People must also factor in tax if any and shipping cost which is where a lot of these companies make up for their initial lower prices. All of these things should be considered when trying to determine if your getting a good deal.
Moreover, clearly people doing swaps and maintainance on their Fieros can utilize these items and I'm sure they appreciate our links.
What he said. No offense but this belongs in the off topics forum.
But do we really want numerous questionable threads polluting our site. Cliff can't possibly police every little thing that's why we must do a better job of policing ourselves .
we were only trying to let him know it didn't belong in this forum.
Do us a favor and police yourself next time....This belongs in OT.

Wasn't going to reply, buuut... Last time I bought the "cheapie" zip ties, they had the tensile strength of a wet noodle. Not saying these are bad, but you *usually* get what you pay for... Ok for light stuff, but I found mine popping apart without much effort when tying up some alarm wires... 'Specially in a hot engine bay. Now back to our previously scheduled flames...

To quote somebody else here: "Guys, technically we can tie almost anything together and make it Fiero related. But do we really want numerous questionable threads polluting our site. Cliff can't possibly police every little thing that's why we must do a better job of policing ourselves ."

Lex, FieroHarry, you make fair points which is just what I talked about in that thread. I never claimed to be infalliable. However, I'll use your replies as reminders to think more closely before making borderline post. That can only make me and the forum better.
Touche' thanks for pointing that out.

I don't really know your history, but you have taken many chances to argue in this thread and just let them go. I have to say that is very civilized of you. You get a + from me just for that.
