Haven't looked recently but, they show up on ebay quite often. Prices are
typically in the $2.00 - $5.00 range per tape.
About two years ago, I bought 30 boxes of new 2400' tapes. As I recall, I
paid $3.00 per tape (with shipping). I'd be willing to part with some but,
since I'm recently unemployed, I gotta make some money on the deal.

Aw Geeze.... is this really the end? I would go nuts if I couldn't get 9
track mag tapes anymore. Pretty much everything in my collection depends on
it. The note says emag is the last manufacturer. Is that in the US, or in
the world? I'm wondering if they will still be available for purchase, but
will originate from overseas manufacturers.
Anyone have a box of good condition 1/2 mag tapes they'll part with?
Probably not now I would guess.
