Oops.  I've put that in many posted requests for things when all I wanted was to 
actually pay a reasonable price, not some inflated epay asking price which never 
gets hit.  I've scrapped countless projects and nearly working pieces of gear 
for lack of simple parts after not being able to find them after sometimes years 
of searching.  I suppose it's either pay top dollar or be cheap, except when 
someone *offers* something for sale at a fair price.
