cheap microfibers

so i was at frys electronics last night and saw a bag of 6 microfibers for $4.99 after looking closely and comparing they look to be identical to the ADS blue microfibers, yes they are the same price but if you need some microfibers now and cheap these seem to be a good option

Costco's 36 pack is a good value. Around $15. The quality is not the best, but they're not bad at all. Here's something to think about- all microfiber towels come from China. Some are certainly softer than others, but the idea that some commercial sellers charge $20-30 a piece is sickening, to me anyway.

They are not all the same and the ones that you see for $20-$30 are a very high quality and the pile is different than the cheaper ones that you purchase. I have a couple that I hace recieved with orders as samples and they are the higher quality ones and there is no comparison between those and the ones that I buy in bulk. You pay for what you get.

They don't all come from China. The better quality ones are typically from Korea.

The Costco/Sam's bulk packs are "okay" - they are a definite step up from the Walmart ones. They work well enough for me, but I'm not OCD.

I have a few of the high dollar ones but for 90% of my detailing I use the ones I get from Sam's. Again they're not quite as nice as the high dollar ones but they are good.
