    Source for cord locks, toggles in qualtity?

    I'd like to add some cord locks, if that is the right name, to the tarp sleeves I make. Those things that ate standard on stuff sacks... Local stores sell the at 3 dollars a pair and just one large size. Where can I get smaller, round, bulk ones?
    Thanks!
    When I find a source, I will send my previous customers a set as well.

    I have used these guys before. No issues.
    An emergency of my own making...is still an emergency.

    Quest Outfitters has a decent selection. For very large quantities there may be wholesalers with better prices.

    BackWoods DayDreamer Gear is another good source. --Oops, but not round though.

    I found mine at WM in the camping section. Box of 4 for a couple of bucks. Not bad if you need them fast and only need a few. Otherwise, go with the above vendors. Way cheaper in bulk.

    We stock a few sizes and I have done a "wholesale" price on some things for folks that need in larger quantities.

    They're not all of equal quality...some are so weak as to be worthless, some are okay, and then, there are those that came on my Wiggy's sleeping bag. Holy chalupa! I could almost use them for an adjustable hammock suspension. Awesome.
