I am looking for a place where I can purchase JUST those little
plastic rings that often top off a CD spindel to keep them from being
lose - I believe they are called a CD stacking ring.  I want to find a
place where I can buy just those rings.   Clearly there has to be a
distributor out there.  I put up a picture at
http://etaion.com/ring.jpg <-  I think just about everyone has seen
one of these.   They are useful in shipping CD's on a spindel, to keep
them from moving around, often you need 3 or 4 or more to stack to
keep the spindel tight.   I need to find out where I can purchase JUST
these rings, I don't need any more spindels or CD's.   I would prefer
to find a wholesaler, over a retailer.  Thanks in advance for those
who succeed.  I looked into it a bit, I think an email or two to a
manufacturer might reveal where or how, but I want to cut to the
chase.   I need for an acceptible answer:  a supplier, a phone or
address of supplier (or email), and a price quote for 1000 or more of
these (maybe 100,000- hard to say).

The picture link isn't working and I couldn't find what you're looking
for, but I don't think it's called a stacking ring.  That seems to be
something that is molded into a CD.

The picture link is working now.  My host parcom.net seems to have
been down - very very rare, but - please check the picture.   These
are the rings found only at the top of the spindel, again, used to top
off the spindel, usually a spindel will require 1,2,3,4 or more of
these at the very top to keep the cd's from moving around during
shipping.    Sorry on link, it's wreaked much havoc that that site
went down.
