Yup stock plugs are expensive. I got mine from Orilleys for about $13.50 each!!! Crazy when i also got 1 step colder plugs (BKR8EIX or whatever) they were about $4 bucks each!!!

Unless I'm dead wrong ,it seems that any commodity that is attached to anything percieved as a luxury item has the price hiked up just beyond the reality zone. Sports car parts,pool supplies,motorcycle parts,etc...etc...yada yada yada. I mean c'mon ,4 freakin sparkplugs or say a Harbor Freight drill press with a multi-speed motor and cast iron work table and change back from a fifity. Don't get me wrong ,I can afford parts for my hobbies and such ,but if I can help it I don't like wiping myself with 5 dollar bills,if you get my drift.
