I would like to buy in bulk Velcro cable ties for mic cables and my stereo/computer cables.
Is there a good place to buy them online or in the denver area?
I would like maybe up to a 100 of them.
Thanks in advance.

I prefer either tie line or bongo ties to velcro. Velcro get's dirty, grabs onto stuff I don't want, etc.

These look like the ones I got at home depot. Cheap and they work well.

These velcro ties have worked well for me:

Inexpensive and work well. If you need a longer tie it's easy to hook two or more together.
These are probably the same or similar to the ones available from Home Depot linked to in the above post.

I like the velcro tie rolls as well. It's not a bad thing to have in your bag. It takes up very little room and if one snaps, pull a new one, it won't break the bank.
I have some more durable ones that I use for wrapping large cables.

I may have to try these out. They do look easier than velcro. Thanks for pointing them out.

I've gotten a number of cable related products from monoprice and am always happy with quality and price.
gotten HDMI , Optical - Coax, XLR > TRS, and more cables including velcro ties...
very happy with them!

I don't know if it's cheaper as it has been probably 6 years since I bought my velcro.
I bought a roll of it from a craft store for pretty cheap and than cut the roll into the sizes I wanted/needed.
For me at least it has worked well enough. I can stick the pieces to the inside of my gear bag and not lose them.
If I do lose them it's not a loss since I keep the leftover roll in the bag also and can make more.
