There are some awesome tapes in this thread!!!! I particularly like the Sony Metallic, those two TDK "Special Edition" tapes. Stranj seems to have hit the mother load of quality cassettes down in VZ. Those SA's and XL-II"s are awesome.

I've not found any great cassette finds in the wild lately, meaning no unique or really good tapes. But, I did pick up a sizeable batch of current day TDK D-120's, Maxell UR 90's and UR 60's from the flea market. In total I think it was around 50 tapes for $5.

it amaze me that the maxell tape says low noise but the recording on them are terrible!!! but the special ones are brilliant sound

I got my 10 pack of eagle reel tapes yesterday from ebay. Great deal even if you just put them in for show.

Well here's everything to date. Very few came from Ebay, most are thrift store finds. These are all sealed new in original packaging. I'm a sucker for the multi-packs and the boxed sets. And I am especialy fond of the New Old Stock sealed cassettes, the one's that go way back to the 80's. If anyone is interest in doing a trade for something you see here let me know. Note: I will only trade on those that I have multiples of. Would love to trade for a TDK MA-R60 or 90 (the metal body type) or even better a TDK MA-XG, doesn't have to be new. It's just something I've always wanted.

TDK

Maxell

Memorex, Sony, JVC, BASF, Scotch, Fuji, Etc...

A bit pricey for me. Not that I normally wear jewelry.

I've got about 300 or so sealed tapes. Mostly premium Maxell & TDK, similar to Milo. Only a handfull of type I's.

Probably got another 300 or so premium tapes with music on them as well. Lately I've been recording onto old tapes rather than open new as some of the tape I have are actually valuable.
