    Linear Rails... inexpensive

    Is there such a thing as inexpensive not cheap linear rails in the 20" range..?

    I was looking over at ebay and you'd think the sellers struck gold.. even the used rails are priced like they are new.

    This is making my DIY projects very expensive, lol!

    No, but I've bought other things from them, and they are excellent to deal with.
