I decided my limit was $40, and I held out until I finally got mine for $38. It's definitely a seller's market with those stems, supply and demand I guess-
Done and done. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the stem McDave was kind enough to point out. Now I just have to wait for it to get here from Switzerland...
