The following prices include US First Class postage. I'll ship sets of 10 internationally, but you'll have to cover the cost of shipping.

1 set (2 of each screw type): $7

5 sets: $21

10 sets: $35

PM me with how many you want and your shipping info. I'll PM back with PayPal / Venmo options.

Yes, but the plastic tapping screws in that picture look like they're actually the shorter screws used to attach the CRT to the front bezel. 
Personally, I find the price for an individual set a little off-putting. However, I understand there's time involved for packing and shipping — also, you invested the time and risk to source and purchase these. Just my $0.02 — apologies in advance if it's not appreciated.

Yeah I’m not really looking to spend a lot of time on this, but figured I’d make them available for people who really want them. FWIW I priced them at $10/set on eBay with much smaller volume discounts. So there’s a substantial discount for people who buy here.

Appreciate the additional detail (and discount)!

Just found this thread looking for case screws for an SE. Are there any left? I'd happily pay for a set or 2.
I could use some as well. Picked up a new SE and it only had two, plus a empty case that didn't have any. I'll probably be trying to add a Plus and a Classic to my collection at some point, so 3 sets would be perfect for me if they are still available.

Interested. How do you PM on this platform?

For people who find this post, I'm not currently taking orders since I'm busy with other things. I might be able to figure out another way to make them available though and will post here if and when that happens.

I ran across this thread today after I got some at the hardware store.
The ones I got matched in size very close and were the same threads but they only had them in Phillips heads. If I had the specs for these screws it would have helped so much love to the OP posting specs.
I’d rather have the torx heads but for now mine will do :)

Hey, just came across this thread and wanted to share my 2 cents. Phillips heads are still pretty good, but I feel you on wanting the torx heads. Maybe you can find some online or at another store. As for the specs, yeah that would have been helpful. I usually just bring in a screw and try to match it up that way, but having the specs would definitely save some time. Also, since you mentioned hardware, have you tried using concrete/brick plugs when installing screws into those types of surfaces? They can really help add some extra stability. I'm still learning about all this stuff myself, but that's something I picked up recently. Anyways, hope you stick around and keep posting.
