Wait until you order some heavy stuff. I looked at buying a C/B crank. It ended up being cheaper to buy from Keith at Henry's Parts. Had to wait a bit, but as I ordered 5, the freight would have killed me. The price ended up being equivalent to cost plus a very modest retail and handling mark up. I usually try Keith first, then look at O/Seas.

Yep, I second that, Keith is a good guy.

I agree - I usually get most of my Model T stuff from Keith - the Model A stuff not so much.
