    the balls alone shouldnt cost you more than about 3 euro at the most Id say and the size you want will usually be five or six mill with a 1.6 tap.

    Complete barbells will be around the tenner mark give or take a few quid.

    Before you go off spending money tho, if the balls become lose often just get some blue tack and dip the threaded end of the barbell into it, dont leave any blue tack on but it'll leave behind a sticky residue that can help keep the balls secure.

    just buy a bunch of them online from wildcat or something, you'd get a bag of them for like 3 quid as opposed to going into a shop and being charged 3 euro for 1 or something

    Does that actually work?
    It's a handy tip, I could save myself a fortune with the amount of jewellery I tend to lose!

    tried and tested :D

    Works most of the time but sometimes its just the threading on the ball or bar get ****ed and they have to be replaced.
