They sell metric hardware in bulk, $4-something a pound, lots cheaper than anywhere else in my area.

My stuff came Friday afternoon. I'm really impressed with the Voltec extension cord, the only problem is now I realize I've never owned a decent extension cord before, all my other cords are junk by comparison.

Man, with all the griping about shipping it would serve some of you guys right if HJE didn't do an Epstein's day next year. I for one was very pleased with what I got for the money I spent. And I'm a cheapskate. Jori et al, thanks for doing this for us, most of us appreciate it!
