I probably will order something at some point (how's that for an aggressive reply?). As musicians with 19" racks, we're used to paying a lot for screws. But really, the rest of the world *isn't*, so I'm more surprised at prices like a buck a screw than 1000 for $10. Now if I can just find extra nickel-plated washers & hex nuts for Switchcraft jacks.... -----Original Message----- From: J.

I searched for 3/8" screws. They were quoted even cheaper. I just can't seem to believe those prices. $7.37 for 1000. That's less than 1 cent each. Surely that can't be right. Are you going to order some to see what they are?
