Contact telephone number - Tape Market (Pty) Ltd is a purely online model. However we also understand that some of you may prefer to speak to a live person and others may not like the risk of doing business with a company with no physical location. We have therefore arranged for some agents who will be able to deal with you in a more traditional and live way. Simply email register@tape-market.co.za and we will get a live person to phone you and solve your tape problem. In your email, please mention the product you are looking for as this will determine which agent we get to call you. Note that any purchases bought using this method will generate a 15% surcharge as a commission fee for the agent on the Tape Market price list found on our products page.

FAQ - Why is there no telephone number?
Answer - The Tape Market (Pty) Ltd has chosen a completely online business model to keep costs as low as possible and therefore prices as low as possible. Most traditional style businesses spend a large portion of their overheads on their staff (full time salaries, offices, switchboards, furniture, etc). We have decided to eliminate this cost using automation and modern technology. Instead we use the existing infrastructure of manufacturers and agents and supply customers directly from them. Our automated procedures allow us to meet the manufacturers minimum requirements so we receive good pricing which we can pass on to our customers.

We can deal with most queries by email.  Although we act mainly as an admin function, we have good contacts in the tape industry and can obtain technical tape answers from the manufacturers and agents.

FAQ - What if I have to speak to someone?
Answer -  We do not have the staff on standby to answer queries telephonically. If you insist on speaking to a live person then please email us with a brief description  of the product you are looking for and we will try email you contact details of a more traditional company who may be able to provide this service. Unfortunately it is simply not a service we can provide without increasing costs.

 FAQ - How do I know you are for real if I can’t speak to or visit your premises?
Answer - There are several things for you to consider. 1) From our company registration number you will see that we have been in existence for five years and this can be verified with CIPRO. 2) If this were a scam we would be selling higher value goods, not low priced adhesive tapes. 3) Test the process by ordering a small order and then increase your order size as we fulfil your expectations. 4) The nature of our product and business means that we need repeat orders.
