Default Nuts and Bolts...

I've done a little online shopping for chrome nuts and bolts. There's a distributor (the name escapes me at the moment) that only sells to retails store, 1 being Ace hardware. However, the thought of paying $2.50 a piece for a 1/4 - 20 X 1" is rediculous.

My question is, is there someplace that has a retail catalog for chrome nuts and bolts?

Any help would be appreciated.

I went to Home Depot, bought what I needed and the went to The Chrome House in Concord, Ontario and had them dipped. All parts in one tank for under $100.00 Alot cheaper than buying one off's.

I suppose that's an option. I would think there's got to be a distributor that don't want an arm and a leg. [X(]
