I have purchased multiple things on eBay from china, and it is surprising how they can pay for shipping. Apparently it is inexpensive to ship. I wonder if it is subsidized by their government (which would make their businesses more competitive).

LOL, whenever I see this kind of comment, I can not keep from laughing.

As a matter of fact, if you have been there, you will find the States is more like socialism compared to the so-called "Red China".

What do you do with Nubs?

Great timing. Mine is worn out. Never thought I could buy this at Meritline.

For anyone wondering what to call it:

From the pics it looks like they'll all be of the soft-rim/dish variety? But that's good, if we're getting all of one type for it to be that one. Even though the domes are nice when new, the dish actually stays usable longer than the others after their texture's worn off. But every time I've bought them in the past, it's been three packs of one each- soft rim, hard & soft dome. Either way this is an incredible price.

B.T.W. anything experience anything similiar to this? I'm actually trying to use the trackpoint as little as possible lately. Because despite being the most precise control of any pointing device, after years of of using them exclusively (every computer at work & personal), I think something neural is happening from the tip of my finger into the back of my shoulder from it. So I'm trying to refrain as much as possible now, toting a mouse with my notebook etc. But some situations there is just no comparison. Not only precision, but when you're typing & jumping from field to field, no moving your hands out of position over to a mouse or down to a touchpad etc. It's right there like another key. But actually I think the strain happened when I got addicted to online billiards & overdid it. Trackpoint was a huge advantage in that game. So between now conservative use & how much I just stocked up, I should be set for life on these.

Thanks O.P.

hey don't snub the nub!

Well, what did you expect from excessive use of trackpoint?
Do yourself a favor just buy and use wireless mouse.

I very seldom use trackpoint or touchpad. They are not comfortable.
Your productivity will be higher if you use mouse.

I always had mice, either with retractable cord or wireless, to use with my laptops.

Nothing beats the mouse. LOL

Right now, when I work on laptop I use Kensington SlimBlade mouse. Great mouse, but not impressed with its scroll ball.
Can't beat its claimed 6-month battery life though.

I am so overdue! In for 2 4packs.
