A really odd question but I'll give it a go. Maybe the OP plans to sell some?
Firstly, what I was really looking for were plain bamboo ones without those odd wooden wheels at the other end but they are surprisingly hard to find. I'll keep looking though.
So (because they were cheap) I bought some of those metal telescopic ones - two different styles. (I had in mind including a couple as Christmas stocking fillers - I'm not that obsessed about owning back scratchers).
They both had brightly painted scratchers that look like mini rakes. One style had soft grip handles and the other had a clip like you'd see on a pen. They do the job however..... Compared to bamboo they are very harsh and I think if you have older more fragile skin you could even break it if you are too vigorous. The one with the pen clip was not as (almost) as 'sharp' as the other one, but the soft grip was preferrable to hold compared to the pen end. The thing that really makes them not so great is that with more use the telescopic function becomes more loose and while you might pull the scratcher out to the max length, I've got one that rapidly starts to close up with even mild pressure. I might end up having to tape the thing permanently out to its max length in the end.
If I can find the type of bamboo scratcher I really want I would put the metal ones away.

Hahahahaha
I have only one. Bamboo with little bent fingers.
Not telescopic. but 18" (or 45cm?) does the job nicely.
But why buy them on ebay? They're only $2 in the bargain shops.

Not my local $2 shops. One had none, the others had the type with the wooden bead thingies at the other end.
Not what I want, alas.
