Have you not heard of Boat US, West Marine, Annapolis Performance Sailing,
Sailnet, etc, etc, etc?
S/V Express 30 "Ringmaster"
Trains are a winter sport

I have heard of all of those but I don't consider them discount stores.

Try being specific about what you're looking for Dennis. Discounted parts
come at the premium of questionable history and dependability at times. Ask
around for your local "Midnite Sailing Supplies" vendor. The local Thieves
Guild may have just what you are looking for in recently pilfered winches or
would no doubt take orders on specific parts. I understand they have a
thriving business at City Marina in NYC run by an unscrupulous character
referred to as "Big Bob"......

Good Luck....

might require. And he' cheap.

Hi CM, I can't find any more information about Thieves Guild. Any links?

That's the point Marc!!

He's not doing his own leg work. It's out there for those who want to find
it.
Instead he's here asking.. and getting no answers partly because he's vague
in what he wants and hasn't done the prep work.

I mean look at the question .."Are there any good US sites on the Internet
to buy boat parts like
snatchblocks, winch handles, etc.at a discount?"

Of course there are... even West Marine has sales and discounts. A trip to
his local marinas might get him better advise for his location from people
that have experience. Why would anyone think that 'better" deals are
available on the web?

CM

Can't speak for everything, but I generally buy anything that is
non-perishable and cost over 25.00 online, My experience is that one can
find exactly what one is looking for at a lower price, after shipping,
handling and tax is taken into consideration. (Not to mention traffic, store
size, incompetent clerks, long checkout lines, etc. etc.)
