Nevertheless, his web page does have a lot of information and pictures.

Are you kidding? Do you really think the O-rings at HF are of the same quality?

This is a huge problem. The people that expect cheap crap to be of the same quality of the best. This is why it's getting harder and harder to buy quality anything these days. People buy the cheapest thing they can get their hands on so the company that makes quality parts makes nothing. They are forced to produce a crappy product just to stay in business..

I have to say the people that think a quality parts seller is ripping them off when they can buy the an inferior quality part for less elsewhere are just dim bulbs and I have little to no respect for their opinions.

So you think $21 for 6 high quality o-rings is a reasonable price?
