I hate to be the one to rain on the parade but I with the easy availability of that specimen of Maxell, a one to one trade may be a reach. Not to say someone won't do it. It's just that the reel versions are hard to get regardless of type. Have you checked out the thrifties for any of the old tapes that came in reel style? :-)

Thanks. Agreed. That's why I say I'm open to offers.

Maybe a 1 to 1 trade for the cheaper Eagle brand ones? They usually sell on eBay for around $8 each, which is around what these Maxell's are worth.

I may just end up keeping these I guess. who knows, lol

Bill, have you considered spraying them? I ended up with a motherload of 36, and I've sprayed several of them. You do need to disassemble them, but it's not that bad. The results are pretty cool, thanks to the design. And they're recording quality is really good.
Of course, I assume you really want the "reel" look for photos, but these look pretty good too.
Not a great pic, but you get the idea.:

I like this kind of Red Tape.
I think I need to clean my lens and my C-100.
:lol:

Yes! I have a bunch of pre recorded tapes that I want to spray paint different colors and such.
