When I need replacement O rings for X-Connect I buy them from HolidayCoro. If I need LOR connector O rings, I buy them from LIGHT-O-RAMA. Just simpler that way(for me).🙂 Edited November 9 by Orville

Usually sent regular mail, might pay maybe $1-$2, for shipment for O rings, if even that, but $20? Nope. Something off with that if that's what you're getting charged for shipping for a bag of O rings!

Unfortunately, when you pay for shipping: 1)They have little incentive to find the most cost effective way. This include using the optimum container like Amazon does. 2) S&H is a profit center (and taxable in CA if lumped. OTOH Actual Postage is not.) To be fair to really low volume businesses. A trip to the post office eats time and fuel. Once your volume grows, A postage Meter or Regular UPS pickup pays for itself. BTW Padded/tyvex envelopes are not free. It (shipping expense) does mount fast. I remember 3 cent first class. now 😲 60 some-odd

Wayne K Posted November 16 Posted November 16 (edited) I think you probably have found some. I have used these off of amazon. 50 for 5.99 for the lor connectors + free ship if you have prime https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CVJ2WZS?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 Wayne Edited November 16 by Wayne K
