For about $6 you get TEN D'Addario .009 (treble e) strings, model PL009.
These are made in the USA with USA-printed packaging - 10 individual envelopes with 1 string in each bundled in shrink wrap.

After opening them, I put all of the packs in a zip-lock bag that I sqeezed all of the air out of.
In theory, this would keep fresh for a longer time and make them less likely to tarnish.

For all intents and purposes, these seem to be the same "treble e" strings that come in a "set of nines" aka&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/D-Addario-EXL120-Electric-Guitar-Strings-Super-Light/dp/B0002H0A7E/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">D'Addario EXL120 Electric Guitar Strings, Super Light</a>&nbsp;- except they do not have the color-coded ball ends.

If you have to replace the "high e" more often then these are a pretty good value to have around.
Of course I only seem to break strings when stretching them after putting new strings on.
Then again, I practice bending nails and tearing phone books.  Duh.
