I need to purchase about 12 sets of 18" full extension ball bearing drawer slides, 75-100 lb rating would be fine. Don't need any special features such as soft close, these are just for some shop cabinets, nothing fancy. I know I've seen these for $10 or less purchased in quantities, but all the vendors I check seems like they are priced more in the $13-$17 range. Any suggestions? thanks-

Quick search just turned up these: http://www.ovisonline.com/12-Drawer-Slides-Full-Extension-Zinc-75-Lb-P1344.aspx

$10.20 if you buy 10 or more sets. I am sure there is S&H on top.

I often buy slides from AH Turf. Their name implies a sprinkler supply store, but they have great prices on cabinet hardware. 18" imported slides are $3.71.

+1 on these folks. I ordered a bunch of Blum guides and miscelaneous hardware on a Tuesday at lunch time and they were sitting on my doorstep on Wednesday when I got home from work. They processed the order in a few hours at most. Granted, they are only the other side of Lake Michigan but still impressive.

if you sign up for emails they usually give 5% off. I put a few items in my cart but don't checkout and a few days later they sent an email for 10% off if I completed my order.

They will be my first stop when looking for hardware from now on.

Do a search for TruTrac guides. I use TT100 for budget homes that want full extension but not soft close. Made in China, good quality. I think I've had 2 clips break over the years. I can't recommend an online vendor as I get them through a distributor.

I've purchased "Fitslide" glides on Ebay and they are just fine for shop use. 18" full ext with soft close price out to 8.60 ea delivered in packs of 10 pairs.

If you get them without the soft close it's even cheaper.

I built my own kitchen drawers to replace the aged/worn ones. The original slides were awful as well. I added 4" to the length of the drawers, and chose the 22" Liberty Brand full ext std close at Home Depot. They were easy to install, work very nice, and best of all my wife loves them

Fellows thanks for the good leads. I ordered 12 pair from CS Hardware for $92 including shipping Fed Ex 3 day delivery. I actually already had an account with CS but had forgotten about them until Tom mentioned them. With the shipping, CS prices were about the same as other vendors mentioned. Again thanks!

Great price ....

Agreed, this was a great price, but a little deceiving. After I put the sides in the cart the shipping was $32 for standard UPS Ground.

I just bought four sets of 18", 100 lbs. capacity, full extension slides on sale at Menards for $8.99 each. Not sure if you have Menards down there, but if you do it may be worth looking into. I think the regular price was $11.99 each.
