I need a couple of these for my case fans. Everywhere I look has them for cheap ($1-2), but them shipping is like $5-10. I don't like paying more for shipping than the items I'm getting so doesn anyone know a place that sells them that has cheap shipping or a B&M store in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis, St Paul) area that sells them?

I guess Compusa has them for $3 which is less than svc.com which cost $4.45 for shipping... If only I needed something else for my PC, i just can't think of anything right now. Anyway, I guess I'll head there after work (only about 5 miles from here).

Thanks for the reply.

Damn! Oh well. I got one at compusa before I saw your post. Oh well, while I was there I ended up getting Serious Sam SE (FAR) and 50 TDK Cd-rs for 2.99 AR (I then cancelled the backorder from BB on the same items.) So IMO it was worth the trip. Thanks for all the help, I really appreciated it.

buy a crimper, and get a box of butt splce connectors. you can easily do this yourself. i'm sure you have a 4 pin connector lying around somewhere, just cut the wires on all and connector together. its color coded:)

I do have plenty of wires and connectors at home. Unfortunately I'm a student and am working far away from homw for the summer, so I have no access to the parts that I have at home. I only have what came with the parts that I've ordered with the computer that I've put together. It was much easier to just head down to compusa (even though they suck) and get the part. Anyway, thanks for the advice... I'd better get back to work.
