can`t believe what I had to pay...

....I just picked up 4 bolts to bolt my engine block to a stand so I can rotate it.  Since we use metric overhere you cannot buy these bolts on every streetcorner, but a local bolt supplier had them stocked so I bought them ...  80 mm long, 4 pcs.....$35,-    feels like getting ripped off and watching it happen

Holy cow. They are like $2.00-$2.50 here for a bolt that size in grade 8 here

I take it that shipping would be outrageous if you were to have one of us buy them and mail them to you?

I guess that will be the next step....  it`s just that if you need something to get on with your work....

Holy Cow...

I guess you guys don't have a Home-Depot and Lowes across from each other at every intersection, do ya...

[dutch]

yes we do, but they just sell metric

We can get both here. I'd think it would be the same over there??

Kinds reminds me of tha stainless steel comp fitting I had to buy   $24.95      

[Carlwalski]

We get both here, low prices. I feel you mate.
Us overseas MoPar fans have it harder than anyone. Real keen.

Metrics here are 3 to 4 times as much as an equivalent SAE bolt or nut, with about a tenth of the selection. Sounds like you may need to find a little better supplier, but we feel the same pain just opposite over here.
