People who own jag gear don't care about the price lol
Could probably get a couple of bolts and an Allen key of eBay or Amazon for a quid

But still it got you 1 post closer to your 100

The op has been on the forum for years. I doubt he's desperate to get a thumb all of a sudden.

They are £4.99. I spent £3 on a coffee today. Did you get up to 88mph and find yourself in 2022 ???

If that didn't have a large whisky in it you were robbed.

How can you call a standard 3/8 bsf grub screw a snag bar convertor , and then go and price it at £4.99 for two.
I'm in engineering and have shown this to my colleagues. Two have gone home to change their wet trousers, four are bent over holding their stomachs or rolling around the floor, making funny noises, and another is asking for his mum

Carp tax is one thing, but this is taking it a bit far

It's people who spend £3 on a coffee who keep jag in business. Each to their own, as they say.

Stainless Steel cup head grub screws aren't cheap but you being in engineering would know that.

Being stainless and a non metric may not be on the shelf at your local engineering supplies, but should still get them in a week for pence.
If they had been modified I'd understand.

The last time I saw something like this was when Solar bought out a tub of PVA packing nuggets. I can't remember whether the £9.99 was show price or shop price.
They weren't so commonly used for packing at the time, so it took a bit of time for word to get about on the forums. But at least you got a tub to keep all your pva stuff in.

A quick search brought up a few, some at double the jag price.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
