@coldkennels I'm glad we got Hornbach. They sell screws, bolts and other hardware by weight or number (depends on the product). They have everything for most jobs in or around the house.

@XyphoidProcess That's the ideal setup. I did have a look to see if I could buy M1.7 bolts on their own somewhere. The best option I could find online was a sack of 500 direct from China - even less reasonable than the mixed box I ended up with. Meanwhile, the town I currently live in is so useless that I couldn't even find screen cleaning wipes in any shops in the town centre. That's what's "killing retail" (well, that and sky-high rents), not online shopping.
