Are they for metric or standard extrusions? If you have a part number and a vendor, please post that as well. I looked through the 80/20 price list for 2013 and saw that standard 1/4-20 T-nuts for both 15 and 10 series (1.5" & 1") were $0.79 each (p/n 3202 & 3204). I can also tell you that our local 80/20 distributor has given us a steep discount on 80/20 parts and accessories, so your local one may be able to help you out that way, too.

Or are these for a mill? If so, McMaster, Grainger, or MSC would be good resources. It looks like (based on McMaster's pricing) the 1/4-20 are more expensive than the 5/16.
