Anyone ever dealt with this company (International Metal Products)? Looks like they could be a good source for clips as they claim to be the world's leading manufacturer. They are located in Massachusetts. Anyone have any experiences they would share?

Ok, may be worth looking into as a "group buy"... if everyone wants the same clips :)

yeah, like your gonna find 25 members willing to buy 1,000 clips each..........and you get to sit there and count them out into 25 piles! :biggrin:

Actually, now that I think about it, I don't think it would be that hard...
When I brought up the Bock nib group buy last year, there were a ton of people who claimed to be interested, but most everyone said "it depends on the price". Since it would be an international shipment, I couldn't nail down a price because I didn't know anything about customs and how much that part may be. There were a few yes's and a ton of maybes. There weren't enough definite answers for me to risk the purchase, at least not as a group buy.
Since IMP is located in the US, that removes any unknown variables and I could have a definite price before placing the order. If the cost were a nickel each, I'm sure there's be alot of interest. If they were fifty cents each, probably not so much...
Anyway, I've contacted them, we'll see what kind of info I get.

By the way, certainly when shipping, they would come in packages of 100 or 1,000... I couldn't see them just tossing 25,000 clips into a box.
