good prices on shanks

[homebrewdon]

Does anyone have a good place to buy cheap shanks? I really want to go with stainless steel but find it hard to believe that shanks are as expensive as perlick faucets.

I bought my first shank last week and decided I have to buy a few more from the same place because its such a great deal! What I got; Chrome Draft Nipple Shank 4 1/2" Long
with Faucet and Handle. I got all that for $35.94 shipped. Did I say it was all new never used in a box?!?!? Ebay baby! It's a bundle deal from a ebay store. Ok, enough talking, more posting of the link to get it. I just bought a few more about 30 mins ago.

I got mine from rapidswholesale.com. They have stainless in 3" and 4" I haven't done much price hunting on them lately, but at the time I bought them, it was the best price I could find on stainless.

I just shelled out for stainless when I bought them. Figured buy stainless once or buy chrome now and someday spend more money for stainless.

Last time I saw them on sale, 4" shanks were about $17.

I bought mine from rapidwholesales as well. Great pricing and selection. Many have used them around here for shanks.

Those are very cheap. Anyone know if they are 3/16" or 1/4" I.D. Dosen't make a huge difference but curious.
