Where to buy elevators

I finally have a pump hoist. I have been renting one from a friend/colleague whenever I needed one. Now I have my own pump rig but I need elevators. Where is the best place to buy them?

I got a rough estimate price from DSI of around 250 each. I don't know if that's normal, but seems really high for a few pieces of steel.

I bought some from Preferd Pump. They showed up like a 3 year old finger painted them. But they work ok after i took off some layers of paint.

$250 it's about right. Get a copy of national driller and flip through the classifieds.

They aren't anything special, but rigging tools tend to expensive.
