C J,

I think the problem is that you have already shopped for prices and therefore know how much parts are. There are so many people out there checking on prices which do not turn out to be
buyers that sellers don't respond to enquiries.

I can see that you are not a time-waster and are genuinely
buying parts, but a lot of the time sellers respond to enquiries and never hear anything again.

So it coms down to this; if you hae prices already, this is how much the parts are and buy them from the supplier you can trust most.
