looking to buy a supply of these, need the 1/2 ounce, 3/4 ounce, 1 ounce, 1.5 ounce, lower size.  Want to buy in bulk.  I change 32 tires or so each year, which is like 60 weights or so.  Running low on smaller sizes.

G'day Scot,

I realise that you want the small ones, but I have a good supply of the 2, 2.25 and 2.5 if you run out.

Bruce,

Thanks, and I can trim down the larger weights.  Shipping lead from halfway around the world will not be cheap.  If I bought 100 weights at an average of 2.25 ounce, that would be 225 ounces, or about 14 pounds, in a compact package, what kind of freight bill would that be?  I have a Fed Ex account for my business, so fortunately a discount is possible.

This is the place that carried them a few years ago, but according to their current online product list, no longer.  If you contact them, they may have some 'left over' stock or will redirect you.
