For the Big Grips at least, Graybar stocks them, and they're really cheap
there. Texas Towers gets $6.00 for a 1/4" Big Grip. The last batch I got
from Graybar was $17.50 for 10 including shipping. I got them the next day
because they had to ship them from Hamden, CT. I work near Worcester and
live in NH.
