Malscott Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Can anyone please advise me where I can purchase 1/4 inch splicing tape here in Melbourne at a reasonable price? I have searched eBay and I can only find it in the USA but the cost of postage they wish to charge is just deal breaking!! Does anyone know if the BASF brand is still available. I am trying to repair my open reel tapes I created back in the seventies. Thanks in advance Malcolm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billyboyrm Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I purchased the BASF hobby box back in 2015 I think. It was unused and still wrapped. Same stuff I used in the 1970s. Has all the gear including the sensing foil needed for the auto-reverse function. Best damned purchase I have recently made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malscott Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Hi thank you for the message, that is the item I have been trying to acquire!! That was what I always used back in the 70s and 80s, I still have the empty boxes. Can you please tell me where you were able to obtain it. I would be looking at trying to purchase one if they were still available. Kind regards Malcolm.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astormsau Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I have the same question, where can you get address and spicing tape, it’s insanely expensive on eBay! Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magical Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I FOUND IT. Sitting in my junk draw for 20 years unused a tape spliced for 1/4 to 1 inch tape. If it cleans up OK you can have it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
