Gus Senior Member Offline Thumpers Rock! Posts: 491 Minnesota Gender:	buying parts 05/02/16 at 11:32:29 OK; so I ordered a float needle and seat for this little GZ250. I stopped to pick,it up and the grand total was 62.00 and some change I had stopped at the bank and picked up a 50 to go get the set thinking it would be in the neighborhood of say 25-40 dollars. EBay has a set for under 20. What th dickens is up with that?

Thought I'd try to do the right thing and support a local business with my dollars. guess I just can't afford to do that. I think it's called biting the hand that feeds you.
