I'm looking for a certain type of reopenable cable tie:

http://sites.inka.de/klee/electronics/binder.gif

The tie in the above picture was included with a scanner (Travelscan
Pro) for "bundling" a USB cable. For purposes such as this it is the
best solution that I've ever seen, IMHO.

Does anyone know where to get ties like that or who manufactures those?

What about those velcro cable straps? Those are reusable.

I know about them, but I like the pictured cable tie better.

Those are reusable.

The pictured cable tie is also reusable (otherwise it wouldn't fit the
described purpose very well).

Radio Shack has/had reclosable clips.

Exactly the model that I described?

Better, IMO. The ones you show are used by manufacturers to bundle cables
for shipping IIRC.

Most reusable cable ties that I know are too fiddly. But maybe the
RadioShack ones are different.

Perhaps. Nevertheless, they are perfect for my intended purpose. If
anyone knows where to get these, let me know.

ISTR ones like a child's shoe fastener that you just fold over on each
other. They have double sided tape an back.

Thanks for the hint. However, BuyCableTies.com doesn't offer the model
that I'm after.

Double sided tape? That's not what I call reusable.
