That's what I put in my cart, like I said above I have around 575 ft all together for about $50 with free shipping I don't think that is bad... I couldn't find the 20 or 22 gauge for very cheap it gets expensive quick and 18 gauge is just outrageous but I don't see much real use for that lol....

Don't worry about it! You got a multi-years supply for an affordable price! A couple dollars either way isn't that important.

But have you had a chance to try Titanium wire yet? Beats the stuffing out of the stainless I was using.

From canada here im a little ...... off, would like to buy from temco ( I guess their wire is made in the us ) but they dont ship to canada, could buy from their ebay store but shipping (usps express) is like 20$ for a 100f.. and +5$ for eatch others. Then If I turn around to go for lightening, they only ship DHL.. I hate DHL. With theses guys, if youre away upon delivery ( witch is usually done within working hours), they get youre stuff back to their office and its a pain in the ... to get there.. I wish temco could offer the cheaper usps internationnal service. Otherwise I wont have no other choice to get a big order from temco ebay store to make it profitable and my wife will be looking forward to kick my ... once again.. Im pretty sure im not the only one in this wife agro situation for our beloved vaping hobby..

I used to order from Lightning for my wire, but recently I've been using Jacobs(Kanthal A-1 (A1) Wire) and really happy with the selection and service, fast free shipping is always a plus. I originally was drawn to Jacobs because they carry Rene41 but I ended up ordering all of my wire from them when I saw their selection, ended up with ~400ft of Nichrome 80, another ~400ft of Kanthal and 30ft of Rene41.

Edit: Have to add, you have not experienced a springy wire until you've tried building with Rene41. Holy crap is it frustrating to build with, ultimately ended up barely using it and currently have nothing built with it.
