My friend has the machine the re-strings the racquet, I just gotta provide the strings. Anyone know where I can get the best-bang for the buck strings? Local sportmart or big5 or eB@y? Intermidiate player looking to start up again ... majority of my hits are going to have a lot top-spin, so something with durability and maybe some color =). TIA!

Let's see...I think I bought my last racquet from tenniswarehouse.com. Buying online is so much cheaper than buying them in a store. I've never had access to a stringer though so I always buy my strings in a store and have them do it for me (~$20 for the cheapest strings) You can get those same strings for $3-4 a pack online. It's even cheaper if you get a whole reel.

yeah, I was thinking about getting a whole reel since I pop the strings pretty often ... checking tenniswarehouse.com right now, any other suggestions online where I can purchase strings for a good price?

I get mine in big reels from klippermate.com
I get the synthetic gut ultra-fiber 16.
