LOL...should this be in the Got Deals Forum? $16 for 100 jumpers...hehe.


If you REALLY need them bad, and you're sure that none of your friends have an old hard drive that you can swipe the jumper from, CompUSA has a 100 pack for $6.99. (http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=294957&pfp=srch1)

But I'll bet if you ask around, someone will have one you can have--check out some old motherboards, as well, as many of them had jumpers you could possibly use.

There's never enough case screws or jumpers are there. I start using other jumpers from the motherboard hoping nothing goes wrong.

let me know as soon as you can if they will work for sure, and how much you would want for all 3, or if you only wanted to sell 2 then how much for 2. just let me know how many you would sell me and what the total would be with shipping, and I will send you either money by paypal or however you wish!!

I will pay you $7 (that includes shipping you should just be able to put them in a small manilla envelope and put on like 2 stamps). Is that ok, and if so, where should I send the paypal payment to?

Is there no CompUSA or Fry's near you? For your $7 you can get a hundred of them and have them tomorrow... I'd be willing to bet any computer repair place would sell you some for under a buck--I can't imagine anyone who builds more than a computer or two per year wouldn't have a bunch just laying around...:shrug:

Of course, maybe it's better to buy two than to have 98 of them laying around... :)

sorry man, but this is just crazy. Most computer repair shops will just give them to you or at most charge you 5-10cents each. I mean after all it is just a little band of metal wrapped in plastic.

That's what I was thinking. Most of us have tons of jumpers lying around; 37 cents delivers. :spock:
