Anybody want some m5x20 countersunk hex-head machine screws, oxide finish?

100 cost me 11.46.

Also got too way many m8x 35 hex-head (normal bolts, not for "allen"
wrenches) in stainless. Part-bag of 43 cost me 21.66, I needed four.

In the Great White North, but post other places is ok.


You really need to change your fastener supplier.There`s less than a
tenners worth there.


I know, but being able

a) to walk there while the motorized transport is immobile; and
b) to get exactly what I needed from a bin on a shelf

has a value.


I hope you voiced your regrets at the price, citing other stores. A
bit of competition might do the gouger (and you) some good.
