You can get those pistons new. Retail for a new #3 piston is about $256. That should be plenty of incentive to find your old one!andrew the tuba player wrote:Ok...this is simaler (yet different) to a recent post...Does anyone have a third piston for a conn 20K?

That's the retail price based on the current C-S web lists. Of course, nothing is in stone with C-S these days until you actually get the invoicebloke wrote:Dan,TubaTinker wrote:Retail for a new #3 piston is about $256. That should be plenty of incentive to find your old one!
Is that from Lori in Elkhorn or Sonia in Eastlake?
ex:
I just bought some lacquer thinner from Lori, and sent it back because 2 gals. + shipping was c. $135.
I turned around and bought a 5 gal can straight from Nikolas for $120 w/shipping incl.
That place in Elkhorn still has them listed for a bit more money.
