As shown in this example, for some suppliers, there is also a minimum order so take that into consideration when buying too. It’s often better to buy in bulk if you want to see reasonable discounts. In addition to this, some vendors are open to negotiation if you can guarantee them continued business and that you’ll buy in consistently large quantities. It may also benefit you as you have a better chance of discounts when you buy larger quantities.

This will also affect the price as it tends to come in a range of different lengths as people use it for different purposes. Some common lengths that you should find it in are anywhere from 13 to 21 feet. You may also find that they sell in meters or mm, so get ready to do conversions to ensure you’re getting your monies worth.
