Is this a good deal on Syringes?

[MarkS]

I recently bought some new Syringes off of eBay for mixing.
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251398074329?var=550321996210&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

The seller sells them to use for insulin etc.

I bought 5 x 10ml, 5 x 5ml & 5 x 2ml syringes. All came with needles but as they are for medical use they are pointed and the lowest gauge (you get to choose) is 21G, which like pointed needles are not ideal for mixing.

Included also was 15 sterile alcohol wipes.

The total cost delivered was £5.89 which I think isn't actually a bad deal for just the syringes alone.

Am I right?


EDIT to Add: The 10ml syringes are actually marked up to 12ml, the 5ml to 6ml and the 2ml to 2.5ml

I did think so Des after looking around a bit and seeing average syringe prices of around 40-50p, but did wonder if people were using a supplier I hadn't found.
You just never know with you canny lot.

I only bought so many as I want separate syringes for different flavours, like one for menthol/mint, one for absinthe/aniseed, one for fruits etc etc

I bought some large capacity one's from China (about 20 from 10ml up to 50ml) which cost around the same, I find them great as I mix in a graduated medicine cup, suck up into the 50ml syringe which mixes it and then squirt into my bottles, makes mixing VERY quick.

Needles are another thing though, I'd like to get a couple of the larger bore one's for flavours as I only have a couple and have to keep rinsing them. maybe I'll find some at Vapefest.

I have loads of needle caps for bottles and if the concentrate bottle is the right size will fit one of those to the concentrate, slip the syringe over the top and draw straight for the bottle.

Of course unfortunately not all concentrates come in bottles that the needle caps fit too though.

You could always try try these instead of needles www.amazon.co.uk/SODIAL-Plastic-Stainless-Industrial-Dispensing/dp/B00J2N2FQI/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_img_5

there cheap as chips and came in about 7 days. Fit all standard syringes although you need to flip the dropper off your flavour bottles, I just leave them all off know.
they also pop onto the bottle Dripper tops and work great for topping up kayfuns and any other atties.
in on the hunt for the pucks bottle tops now to take these for my mixes

Lots of Mixers seem to rate these needles Mark . . . I don't ever use them myself, so just going by what I've read.

I do like a bargain, plus I can give them away if anybody nearby wants a few to try

I've just remembered I have some "Spikeythings" (old vapers will know) in one of my vaping boxes.
