    Recommendation for BS guide bearing source?

    Found a frozen lower bearing on my BS today. It's a sealed bearing and I couldn't get any lube into it to free it up. Rockler has a nice bearing kit for my saw but it's on backorder until mid Decmber. Started looking for other sources. I found a couple in the $8-9 per bearing range, which seems expensive. But then found PGN Bearings in Miami selling them in bulk for $0.95 a piece. That seems pretty cheap so I question the quality.

    Where are you guys getting your bearings?

    Thanks

    Edit - Guess I'm getting old. Never thought to check Grainger or Mcmaster until after I posted. Grainger has them for $3.74. Think I'll stock some extras.
