Vet Wrap... What site is the best to buy from.

I need some vet wrap for my PVC playstand. What website is the cheapest and has the lowest shipping. Which ones shouldn't I order from?

If there is a petsmart around you, they usually have vet wrap for a little over $1 a roll. If you don't want to pay for shipping. Maybe you could check it out.

Or if you have a farm & garden store that sells horse supplies, it's pretty cheap there, too.

At this time horse.com is selling for 99 cents a roll and charging $5.00 for shipping.

I also get it at the feed store, but usually I pay about 1.50 - 2.00 per roll depending if it is on sale.

make sure its still VET WRAP - the cheap stuff is not as good, doesnt stick as well or as long and doesnt stretch as nice. Jeffers is a good place/site

I found horse.com but I looked up reviews and there were a whoole lot of complaints on the customer service! It scared me off 0_0

But actually if you search it on Amazon a bunch of their third parties have it. If you do that though, make sure you're getting it all from the same company, because the shipping will kill you if you just pick what Amazon lists straight off!

The reason I like going this route (I do it for just about anything that can be found for a good price on Amazon) is that they are very dedicated to pleasing the customer and while they do not guarantee the customers, they will force them to make everything right if there has been an issue.


In about 10 years or so I have had three seperate problems with Amazon third parties. Each time the seller did not respond/did not fix it within a week, I filed a complaint with Amazon and my money was refunded within a couple of days.

They do not mess around. ^^

This is actually available in the "human form" in the drug store. It is not brightly colored but is basically the same thing. So as long as your pet doesn't mind "boring beige" it is available!!
