Like this one?

I'm actually disappointed to find out they've changed the design. Here's what the classic Tot stapler looks like. And the classic Tot stapler is only available in red.

And after that, they're going to take your stapler away.

Direct from Swingline.

From Thinkgeek.

Sorry dude.
The red stapler is a 747(look at the model number and the plate on top ofthe stapler).

The black 747 also sells for $29.

Red:
S7074740 $28.99
Black:
S7074741A $28.99

Yeah, I know that this is kind of silly. But what the hell, I need a diversion.

No hard feelings eh?

>>The black stapler sells for $9.99, the same exact model in red sells for $49.99

Not true.

The red one is priced about the same as the others.

Though $30.00 for a stapler seems like a lot of money. What does it do? Spellcheck before stapling?

One of the fundamental laws of the universe is that sooner or later, everything becomes Office Space. Everything that doesn't become Office Space becomes This Is Spinal Tap.

the red stapler from Office Space.

Link patrol!

...it looks like the on-line order button has been removed...

But other products still have the order button.

Weird.

And they're slashdotted, too! Poor Swingline.

My guess is that the person who experienced this bug was on a corporate lan with a single gateway IP, maybe cookies were also disabled or screwed up, and SureSource's session tracking code freaked and a session was hijacked.

Is it just me, or does the stapler from the movie look more like the the durable stapler than the new Swingline Red Stapler ? Maybe spray paint is still the best way to get a Milton stapler - ignoring the 100% markup for red paint...(?)

Swingline The Red Stapler
Ah, the price of fame. Hollywood took one of our staplers - thanks, by the way - and used it in one of their films. Trouble is, they painted it red, a color we didn't offer. Ever since, we've been getting calls from customers demanding to order "that red stapler". Okay, okay, you win. We took our industry-leading 747 Desk Stapler and gave it a deep, establishment-defying, I'll-flaunt-my-individuality-if-I-choose-to red finish. Without sacrificing one staple's worth of solid 747 reliability. The only concession we've made, in fact, is to offer the Red 747 exclusively over the Internet, at least for now. And that's a matter of public safety - they're in limited supply, and we'd hate to cause riots in the street.

See the Red Stapler here.

Cheers,
Luke

At least now we know they use jrun.
