Am's remnants are pretty thin here lately. Seems the economy has alot of people looking there instead of buying full pieces.

I'll have to check them out, I get my stuff at First St. Recycling. Their recycled stuff has been low for a few years now, they do have new.

check craigslist for used benders:
http://dayton.craigslist.org/tls/1541564034.html
http://dayton.craigslist.org/tls/1558216196.html

both are nice benders

wherever is closest to you is probable cheapest for tube. as most are pretty similar in price, but after adding 1/2 hr+ each way to the drive in a truck the cost can go up some.

Truck???? I duct tape it to the top of the XJ and I'll start checking cl for a decent bender.
