Purbeck Field Target Club.
Hundreds of sellers on the bay-that-cannot-be-named and most do small quantities for not much more than the cost of postage.

O rings are rarely 2p each but yes they don't cost that much compared to what they are sold for, however buying such items one needs to make the vendor's time worthwhile.
Unless you have a local source you can just visit and buy from, (lucky me ) you will have to pay extra for the privilege. And in reality, be thankful - just think of the guy selling 9.99 o-ring kits, if he sells 10 a week he's hardly going to be able to ditch the day job.
For odd sizes I have used Bohemiaseal.cz also on the bay.

Hayleys are good, get my buddy bottle o rings from them!
I find it is a sort of 'catch 22' situation. If you want a specific O ring or two then it can be worthwhile visiting an on-line shop and buying maybe 25 or so of each which, including postage wlil cost less than just buying a single O ring or two from an airgun spares shop. What to do with the excess? Well you could sell them on here at cost plus postage. That way you get your money back (or some of it) plus give another person the chance to buy O rings much cheaper than from a dealer. When it comes to a complete set of rings for a particular rifle you have to know the sizes involved and manufacturers can be very fussy about letting people know what they use. A Google search can help or asking on here. But then there can be odd sizes that can be difficult to find, or 90 shore specification when all you can find is 70. So ... although it grieves me to say so, if the kit contains a lot of rings and it is not possible to find out which sizes / specs are used, it is best to buy the kit. What I personally then hope is that people wil measure the contents of the kit and post the sizes on here ......
As an aside, many people say buy one of those multipack boxes for about £10 or so expecting them to answer all your needs. In my experience this is rarely true.
