I am getting into balloons (seriously) after being away for MANY years. I don't think I am imagining this: Back in the day, didn't Qualatex balloons come pkgd by the gross?? "Twelve dozen".....? What is up with this 50-count thing now?? Probably just shrink-flation, I would imagine.

260s have been packaged in bags of 100 for a few years now. But yes, years ago they were packaged by the gross (144).

Also, a few months ago, I was looking for 260Qs (Traditional Assortment), and my supplier didn't have bags of 100 in stock (shortages). But they had bags of 250 in stock. So, I found out that you can get them in a larger count than 100.

I've seen solid colours in bags of 50 or 100 (the bags of 50 are usually all lined up, ready to put into a balloon bag / apron). And I've seen assortments in bags of 100 or 250.
