    I found a 10-pack of p100 replacement filters in my shop. As in 10 pairs. I feel like I won the lottery.

    Lucky. I had to order from ULINE as I don't trust Amazon and EBAY not to be fakes. Price wasn't bad but their shipping is outrageous.

    Mask coming from here as ULINE is either out or won't sell them to customers who haven't previously ordered them.

    Filters from ULINE as MI doesn't appear to carry this particular one. They do carry others that have protection against other things but not what I wanted.

    That's for a medium size mask btw. It's the proper size for most adults according to what I've read. Your needs may be different.

    Yeah, was going to say that uLine wasn’t selling to customers that didn’t already have that specific PPE in their order history.

    Lucky you!

    They sell the filters to anyone, but not the mask. It seemed odd but Amazon has the same policy.

    Wasn’t that way 2 weeks ago. Luckily I have an account and just ordered 2 new respirators and a bunch of filters super easily.

    Crazily enough I want them for some welding and painting projects I have on the go, not the plague.

    They also had the masks on for minimum 2 per order. Strange.

    Heh, apparently my local Lowe’s has p100 masks and filters available for in-store purchase only.

    I was there a few days ago and they had maybe 100 boxes of 50 count disposable masks. Maybe more than that. I’m guessing all this PPE is available because no one down here believes it’s actually a problem, which in turn makes it more of a massive fucking problem

    Or supply has finally caught up to the initial panic-fueled hoarding and normal demand.

    We’re having a scaled down graduation party for our sons next week ( so far ) and I asked that anyone whose been to any of the states listed in the travel advisory stay home. Turns out my brother’s kid is in Florida and coming home Saturday. My nephew is self quarantining for two weeks as required, but I had to ask my brother and his wife not to come.

    He understands completely, and we’re having them up for dinner Friday before the boy gets home, but I still feel like shit.

    looks like $25 for the 3m brand and $15 for extra filters. Still not sure if I’ll wear it or not though. Good price for sanding and painting work though.

    How will Florida top this? If the student dies do they give the money to his parents? So many questions.
