Whats the difference between the fine and regular tagging guns. Do you need both, or can you use one and tag through the clothing tag on everything.

Default Re: Tagging guns

it ias all about the thickness of the needle, so it's the size of the hole it will put in the tag/garment depending on where you decide to put it. it also depend on the width of the plastic "wire", normally you are fine with them in s,m,l. although i never use the large. i use med, i dont know why i never use the small.

ebay is the best place to buy them, i bought mine with 6 needles 2xs,m,l, and 5000 tags for $0.05 plus shipping from hong kong, so it came to like 6 something.

I always thought there was a catch to the buy for that cheap from china. You had no problems with the transaction? Thanks

Do I have to call you Awesome/Ethan or can I just call you Ethan ()?

J/K, anyway, Ethan, do you have the name of that ebay seller? I'd really like to check his auctions. That pricing sounds awesome. I think you mean $5.00, not 5 cents, but I'll just go to the site to check myself if you'll be so kind as to post the user id. Thanks 5000 times. Kelly
