Holy Cow! I love it when they start adding all sorts of colors! And Marettes too! Good grief, back when you could buy that lamp cord, I bet the replacement wires weren't more than $10.

I've noticed though, there seems to be some group of people who like to fix first, then see if the proper replacements are available, or maybe not. They're usually the ones with the huge stock of used lamp wire and like marettes too.

I'm fine with marettes for things that don't move, like connecting a ceiling light fixture. I'm not so good with them, unwrapped yet, on a cord that will be wrapped and unwrapped on a presumably regular basis (otherwise why not wait til you can get a new cord?)

Good add mom-6
