...check Amazon. Multiple vendors in that price range for a box of 100 DT's, (may or may not include nipples.) What's weird about Amazon for spokes is that certain vendors will list certain lengths, and others will list other lengths, but nobody on that thing seems to carry a full range in all the common lengths.
One of the things Niagara was good for (when still alive) was a pretty full range of lengths for these at competitive prices.
There is probably some place that is still good for this...maybe someone else knows.
I see prices are all over the map now. It's a lot of work to roll 36 spokes using a Hozan. I wouldn't do it, because I'm lazy, and because I know this guy with the machine.
