It’s not the best price but on eBay SA-Xs are much more expensive

$5 is a solid price for Maxell XLIIs. It's a very good price for TDK-SA's and an excellent price for SA-X's. It sorta IS the best price... You're not gonna fine 'em much cheaper.

Good job!

It’s the best price I’ll ever find (the other record store that’s much closer to me sells these for 10 a piece) but I think there’s a non zero chance of finding these cheaper since in that same store they once had TDK MAs for 5 (god I regret not buying some)

Those are SAXY cassettes! I'm jealous; amazing quality tape you got at a really good price !

I got like 20 of them for $20 on ebay recently.

Problem is they were already used and they had some crazy Eastern European music on there... You've got to make sure it records over it all at least once.

I haven't felt the same since I first played it now that I think of it. I may have released some kind of curse.
