Wander plugs from the outdoor market - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

I noticed a stall selling packs of four 'thin' banana plugs at Oxford outdoor market today. These are the type with a thin shaft and big springs that will fit a wander socket on an old radio (though I suspect they wouldn't be very secure in a standard 4mm banana socket.)

The pack cost £1.99 and contained two black and two red plugs. Oxford market isn't the cheapest in the world so the same packs may be available more cheaply elsewhere (the stall is typically twice as expensive as markets around Stoke, for example.)
