online source for gaskets that have reasonable shipping?

[ian105]

checked a few places online...noob to buying stove parts online so looking to find the "go-to" places that are reasonable.

conclusion..harman branded parts are way overpriced.
online shipping for small orders is inflated. really $11 to send 2 items that fit in a USPS flat envelope.

Does this look like its right for a harman accentra.

need about 6' of window gasket 1/2

9' of door gasket 3/8

all the pre-packaged 3/8 is to short ive found.

Not sure what all the right sizes are, but I am an Amazon Prime member so the free and quick shipping often brings the prices down when all is figured in:

Have you talked with your local dealer. I know my dealer will work with you on the price a bit. Might be worth it when you factor in shipping.

I looked at that, the problem is all the generic pre-packages gaskets are only 7' The accentra takes 9' since the firebox door and ash pan door are one.

I have not - I purchased the stove used and the closest dealer is over an hour away, so if I have to drive there to get it...I may as well just pay shipping.
They did not sell it originally, there used to be another harman dealer much closer 5+ years ago.

I think I will give Eric @kinsmanstoves a call. I've seen his name mentioned around here many times. Given I have no relationship with the local dealer and they are totally out of the way, I will need a place to get my parts from.

I did drive down to the local dealer last year when looking at wood stoves, as they are the Blaze King dealer as well. That was my first experience seeing a harman burn in person. Great people, even called me this summer when he was changing out a floor model I has expressed interest in if he put a different unit in. Wish they were closer. Has anyone had their local dealer provide parts by drop shipping so you don't have to go there to pick them up?
