PointOfExpression 53 Posted March 13, 2013 Hello everyone, I am in need of some help! Does anyone know where to get tubes like this: We just got an account and they want to display our stickers and this is the only way I can think of on how to display them. I just want them plain as I will be adding my design myself. I can find them but the moq is huge on all of them! Any help or advise is greatly appreciated!

MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted March 13, 2013 did you check uline? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theishkid 13 Posted March 13, 2013 Try calling a carpet store and ask them if they have any left over tubes from their carpet rolls. You'll have to cut them down yourself as they generally come in 12' or 15' lengths. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted March 13, 2013 They are called 3 piece telescoping tubes or cardboard bore tubes. Either you get them from china or this guy http://www.custompapertubes.com/luxury/3piece_telescope_package.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don't have what we are looking for. They are called 3 piece telescoping tubes or cardboard bore tubes. I know that, I am wondering if anyone knows where to get them for little quantity or if they have any different ideas on how I can sell these in the store.

theishkid 13 Posted March 13, 2013 I can find out in the morning... my dad owns a carpet store here in OKC. I want to say they are 4" diameter but that's just going off memory, I'm sure I could be way off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted March 13, 2013 What about clear plastic tubing? http://www.uline.com/cls_15_ClearTubes/ Or http://www.uline.com/BL_3708/Clear-Retail-Tubes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PointOfExpression 53 Posted March 13, 2013 What about clear plastic tubing?http://www.uline.com/cls_15_ClearTubes/ Or http://www.uline.com/BL_3708/Clear-Retail-Tubes Yeah, saw that but I don't think that would work or atleast I don't think it would look that great. Also, they are not tall enough. I can find out in the morning... my dad owns a carpet store here in OKC. I want to say they are 4" diameter but that's just going off memory, I'm sure I could be way off. That would be great! We are really looking for 2.5-3" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
