That would be a REALLY expensive valve - what would you be using it for?

not sure if it is wholesale only or public but when I managed a hardware store I ordered all of my PVC stuff from a place called Western International Plastics(Wipal) in Calgary , Davies Electric also carried a large inventory of PVC

Not too bad US Plastics is only $35, but then shipping. Thinking converting to a Herbie.

I see the Spears are about 2x's this price - still much cheaper than the last time I shopped for these, likely because oil prices are so much lower. Never used a stand pipe myself.

FYI, we do have gates (and other specialty plumbing parts) and we are now online and ship...boggles my mind that Colby isnt willing to order you a $40 gate valve.
