Where to buy grub screws?

Tried DIY shops, only screwfix seem to do a variety pack of 250 for £16... I just need 2 for a door handle.

Thanks

eBay? You can tend to buy them in lots of 10 for a couple of quid.

Last lot I bought was off ebay, loads of sellers do different sizes and quantities really cheap

for these and bolts I'd usually pay a bit more for stainless , under the impression tooling(thread quality) will be better.

Was hoping to avoid online retailers as looking to fix the door handle asap i.e. tomorrow.

Only other place I can think of is a local hardware shop of some kind, they're usually a lot cheaper for stuff like that than the big chain stores.

My local hardware shop wouldn't even bother charging me for 2 grub screws!

They sometimes get called machine screws if you can't find any/assistamt doesn't know what they are.

Buy a metal lathe and drill press?
