Thats their list price, the last two boxes I got listed at $24, my price was $4. To get that price you need an account.Fastenal should be called " last resort", I just checked their price for 1oo pcs/box of 10-32" x 3/4" ,it was about $28, Travers charges $0.08 per screw. but not sure if it's the same quality.
Thanks Greg, I just registered with them online but haven't noticed a change in their prices yet, it might take 24 hours to take effect.Thats their list price, the last two boxes I got listed at $24, my price was $4. To get that price you need an account.

I ended up going to the store(the only one in our small city) and asked if I could open an account with them they said no but then they gave me a huge discount on a box of 100 #10-32 cap screws paid $7 and change instead of $24.,the list price on their site is nowhere near what they actually charge their walk in customers.Registering doesn't seam to do anything Ken. With an account I phone in and they give me my price. Most industrial supply places seam to work that way, guess they give different discounts to different people. ???

I buy from Travers all the time the only negative comment I have against them is their minimum purchase of $70 but as you said Canadians should and do feel lucky to have companies like Travers doing business up here ,they do offer reasonable prices and flat shipping.Fellow Canucks. I had a similar sticker shock with Fastenal & it looked like it was box type quantities anyway. So I figured may as well go to Travers & combine it with any other tooling needs & flat rate 8.95 or whatever the shipping is. What I like about KBC is same offerings, same flat rate shipping, but they will sell onsey-twoseys at slight odd-lot markup. But well worth it for me. I'll never use up 100 setscrews of a specific size in a lifetime. But my projects may requires any number of 6 different lengths so nice to have 10 of each.
This brings me to Spaenaur. I set up account over the phone recently, very extensive product line, but I'm guessing also box quantities. I have not ordered yet. Any experience with them?

To my USA metal-head brothers, I am green with envy at the number of great resource you have.
McMaster-Carr has socket head cap screw assortments, too. Not too badly priced, either..................... If I need several sizes, I will go to McMaster. The prices are reasonable and it usually only costs around $6 for shipping. And it should be there in 1-2 days.
