Hi
We're looking for plastic sliders that are used in collectable card games.
We've found one supplier in the US link
Looking to find other options if any one has any ideas they would be much appreciated.

You might also try extra-large plastiklips, such as these: link . You should be able to find them at a "big-box" or regular stationers. We use them at our archives to clip together thicker batches of papers. Jim |

Tiny colored binder clips available at office supply stores. Very unlikely to slip off too…. |

I assume the slider needs to "point" to a stat/value/morale state? So you slide the gizmo to show a loss or a shaken status? |

Thanks fellas
Looks like plasticlips might be just the very thing we're looking for.

You might also consider miniature clothes pins:

I noticed that the people advertising the plastic clips in the fist link don't actually have any stock when you read the fine print. You may want to consider these:

We use the mini-clothes pegs and they seem ok. They come in different colours too. |

I've used mini paperclips slid along edges of cards to track velocity in starfighter games; those may work for your purposes. |

The Zomicide games have some plastic tracker clips for their cards. Might want to look into those? |
