Re: [Harp-L] 0-80 x 1/16" screws for reed replacements COSTS

This morning my Fastenal contact reported they are unable to locate these machine bolts.  They said all their supplier no longer sell them.  This is very disappointing and frustrating.  If anyone has suggestion on other possible sources please let the cummunity know.

Thursday morning, I was able to get a price on the screws from Fastenal.  They are part number 0176995 and the cost is $12.17 / 100 plus $4.80 shipping.  They said my order should arrive by next Tuesday.  I won't need all 100 so if anyone is interested in a few let me know off list.

It's now Wednesday and I cannot get a price from Fastenal.  I called our local store and they could not determine the price.  They called the district manager but he has not replied with a price.  I have purchased other small stainless steel machine screws from them for a very reasonable cost so hopefully this size is no exception.  I thought I has some powerful infulence with Fastenal but hope springs eternal. Hopefully tomorow we'll have an answer.....

Larry,

I found that same Web page. The confusing thing is that it says $12.17 for a package quantity of 1, 
at a weight of 0.0001lbs. I'm fairly certain that one screw would NOT be worth $12.17. 
(You would be getting a different type of "screw" for that price for one!). 
Absent any more information, I presume a call to Fastenal would clarify the total quantity in a package.
