Holy cow... 1000ct? I bought two. Also picked up 2 packs of the 6"... Thanks!These are great little zip ties deeply discounted if you need to stock up.
3M Cable Tie CT4NT18-M ( Pack of 1,000) $3.02
3M Miniature Cable Tie CT6NT18-C, Natural/Nylon, 18 lbs., 0.10 in x 6.10 in (Pack of 100) $2.18
buyer beware. i purchased these exact ones 3 times a few months ago and all but one came as a single instead of a 4 pack. chatted with a rep and they sent out more for the first 2 orders and those both came as a single. finally they just partially refunded my money for what i received, but they also messed that up and refunded me too much so i ended up with like 8 for $50-something. also, they weren't the size mentioned (they were bigger, if a specific size isn't important) and they were buckhorn brand not AM. but if i recall correctly they may have had the right item # on them.Every once in a while, these drop to stupid prices. $46.66

overall a huge hassle even though i ended up with a good deal. just don't expect to actually get 4 if you order.
Looks like a seller is fighting Amazon for the buy box. I think we'll see a bit of this since Amazon plans to charge seller who do their own prime shipping an additional 2%. Lets see how low it will go...Strong Hands three axis welding clamp for $195. Was about even with the low side of the graph on Camel, $240 most places.
my biggest concern was getting black listed by amazon for "returning" or claiming non receipt of too many items, as i had a few other issues within the last several months, the rest i think were warehouse deals but were the same issue--6 packs coming in as singles.This is a fair warning. This problem was pretty widely reported on GJ - others received damaged goods. I have ordered three times (different sizes) without incident. I'll report back when I get this latest delivery. Parenthetically, I have often experienced the "one pack" instead of "multi-pack" from Amazon. Most recently, I tried to order 100-count of 3M electrical tape - I got one. I exchanged it - I got one.

Amazon does not consider returns of warehouse deals the same as other returns since the condition is not always as advertised.my biggest concern was getting black listed by amazon for "returning" or claiming non receipt of too many items, as i had a few other issues within the last several months, the rest i think were warehouse deals but were the same issue--6 packs coming in as singles.
I use 6 ton jackstands with all my cars including a VW Bug (1800 lbs wet) just to get the extra height. If the car is sitting properly and solidly, height is not an issue. I also got rid of all my jack stands that did not have the double locking pin feature.
Harbor freight jack stands? No way! Don't trust my life to the lowest bidder of the day who makes their jack stands.
I like that!Amazon does not consider returns of warehouse deals the same as other returns since the condition is not always as advertised.

What makes these side terminal wrenches different from a 6-point reversible ratcheting wrench?
Yes that way when you are swinging them and bang up against a metal fender you don’t start welding.The red insulated handle?

Here's the update - I ordered 4 of these (16 totes total). I received four packages. Three had 4-packs in perfect condition. The fourth had a single tote. How does that even happen?

all i can imagine is the single is buckhorn brand (correct me if i'm wrong and the single was something else) and has the same part # as the 4 pack akro.Here's the update - I ordered 4 of these (16 totes total).

They are all Akro-Mils and the same size.all i can imagine is the single is buckhorn brand (correct me if i'm wrong and the single was something else) and has the same part # as the 4 pack akro.
also, was the single larger than the correct ones and/or are the 4-packs the correct size?
different from my experience then. not sure how they got a 1 pack in with the 4s then.They are all Akro-Mils and the same size.
It's a battery terminal wrench for side post (GM). Vinyl coated handle to aid against arcing. You use purpose made wrench to keep your expensive wrenches away from battery acid. Usually for mechanics/technicians not home gamers.What makes these side terminal wrenches different from a 6-point reversible ratcheting wrench?
