Never ordered anything from China on Ebay till just now...

Been buying all my eye's from Bog baits,at what was the best price I had found... 3 cm 500 ea for 11.00,,,4cm 500 ea for 14.00

Just saw a seller on the bay that has 1500 3cm for 9.99 free shipping,and 1320 4 cm for 9.99...

Shipping shows 3 + weeks to arrive...Ill let you know how it goes.

Rad - crappiecripplerjigs posted about buying these eyes, he can give you info on them or if any problems came up. And you're right he said it takes a few weeks. http://www.jigcraft.com/jigcraft/showthread.php?tid=4468&highlight=3d+eyes

Here's the ebay page on them http://www.ebay.com/sch/Lifeflies/m.html?_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

Wow, China direct, good luck. 100% feedback for the Seller so looks good.

I dunno the details, but thought an import license was required, maybe at a certain price point.

I've ordered from them a couple times. First took about three weeks but second order made it in ten days. Quality equal to Bog's at a great price. Need more 4mm silver so will be ordering more soon.

 

[Ron Don]

Cant beat that price. Thats the price i was quoted for 50k. By the way most of the eyes you are using are coming from over there.

 

[Fatman]

What would you all say are the top three colors you absolutely would want if you could have only 3?????

Ditto Jungle. While back couldn't find 3mm glow eyes and had to special order 10K from China. Still using them and now you can find 3mm glow eyes on ebay.

For me its Silver,Red,Gold....Still have a bunch of green and blue from earlier purchases but seldom use them..

I have a bunch of different styles and I way over pay for them. I like the WTP brand and I know it is expenive but if I'm doing 20 baits with eyes I can put the eyes on at one time, make the bait and then clear coat. I just finished off 300 "generic" eyes and the adhesive was so bad that I had to put the eyes on the bait and clear coat right away and then the next day I needed to take super glue and a tooth pic and actually glue the eyes on otherwise they wouldn't stick at all. If it was a few minutes of my time it wouldn't matter but when I do a large amount it takes an extra hour for a job that should take less than 5 minutes. I'll be watching this to see how good the adhesive is, another person I know pays like a penny each which is good. I hope they work for you, I may even try them at those prices.

SJ wtp eyes are great. They are American made which is the reason!

 

[LedHed]

Think the WTP eyes fluoresce (glow under a black light).

 

[CrappieHappy]

I find myself using mostly silver nowadays, so thats all i order now.

 

[StumpHunter]

I wouldn't order from China for a long time, finally broke down and ordered from there and I have always received the products with no problems. Just takes a little more time. Thanks for the heads up.

 

[CrappieHappy]

these are the 5mm eyes on Ron Don's fish heads, guess ill need to place another order in the near future from RD..

 

[Ron Don]

I still want hot pink eyes in quantity!

 

[Radtexan]

You beat me too it Ronny...I found a handful of some pinks Id forgotten about,,,not sure but I think they came from Crazy...At that time they were very expensive...Seems like it was 7.00 for a hundred or close to it.
