Online shop for: grommets, cable ties, misc items?

[nihilist]

Hey guys.

Does anyone here know of any good, reliable sites that sell stuff like cable ties, fasteners, grommet etc;

ie: for case modding.

I want to drill some 3cm or so holes in my case to make some openings for routing cables behind the motherboard tray.

So far I've found electronics123.co.za but haven't heard anything about them yet.

Any ideas?

Why not just head to the hardware? Not everything can be done online in SA.

*gasp* ... outside? .. in that place with non pixelated buildings? what?

Nah, just easier atm to shop online, no time to go venturing out looking at shops.

LOL - the Builders Express/Warehouse stores have these for you - grommets, cable ties, etc - all in different sizes...and really cheap.

Surely worth the "visit" outside to avoid postage charges...

Dude seriously it is not easier to shop online than going to your local hardware.

Get in car drive 2 minutes to hardware, pick up stock.

Order online, make payment wait 1-3 days. How is that easier?

They do stock some items locally, otherwise its a week or so to bring it in. Nice selection, but prices can be quite hectic on run-of-the-mill stuff.

I don't think I could wait a week for cable ties.

Why do you need grommets and cable ties anyway? All you need is a glue gun and duct tape. j/k

And just why would anyone want to import cable ties from Canada

I smell a spammer

Old thread, new spammer

Besides I'd much rather source from a local store.
