NormK, That might be that particular dealer pricing but I have the same problem here of over pricing especially on Stihl parts. One local dealer was eating me alive on part prices. Now in with another where the prices are reasonable. On one particular part I was needing they nearly triple in price when compared to my current supplier.
It does pays to shop around sometimes. As a regular repair shop I am always on the outlook for suppliers that can lower my bottom end which I also pass along to my customers in the form of reduce resale prices. No reason to pay 14.00 for 1.55 bearing which I just ordered 20 ea.
