Mini DV tapes are a lot cheaper in bulk, just wondering if the forum ever does a group buy.

I'm in for 15-20 Sony DVM60PR or similar.

Yes, I know they're cheap, but maybe they could be even cheaper.

Just go to your local Costco or Sams Club and you can get them in 10-packs for just over a dollar a piece.

How much cheaper do you want them really?

Here at Costco they are over $2.00 per tape for the Sony blue packs. They don't carry the Sony Red packs.

Wow, I'm old... I remember paying $22 each for Sony DVM60PRs back in 2000/2001...

We thought we had struck gold after paying $30 for 30 minute BetaSP tapes...

Is it possible to order from Costco online? -They dont have tapes listed on their site.

Probably not; some of their stuff is online only, some of it is in store only.

Call them to find out for sure.

$2.65 each

Sign up for their coupon promotions and they are often less than that.

For Panasonic PQ tapes, this place is hard to beat:

B&H $2.15 a piece for 10-50, under $2 if you are buying 200.
