Bugbite'98 (did we meet?) not to worry, many people whenever they see my 
name, delete!  : )

I ended up ordering them from REI over the phone from Idyllwild and they had 
"one" set left, which was forwarded to Big Bear City.  They cost me $13 an 
only send UPS.  I had mine shipped to the Fire Station.  

I heard later most other thru-hikers would call Leki direct and they got 
theirs replaced for free.  

I couldn't understand why such a large company like REI would not have 
replacement parts for something they sell.  Well maybe I could.
