Is there a local source for parts for a small propane stove (it's a kitchen stove but more the size of what you would put in an RV)? I have one that needs some brackets for the burners and to replace a couple burners. It was manufactured by Brown if that helps at all. I tried Pahoa Propane.

I fixed my stove with replacement parts from EBay -- a genuine part (in factory-sealed package) for less than half the cost.

yea, that was the next step. I like to buy local (I give up to 10% more to the local guy vs buying online or at a major corporation ie walmart) though so was going there first.

I prefer to buy local, but I usually can't afford it.
For example: local shop wanted $200 for the part + $40 to ship from Oahu, EBay seller was $80 (with free shipping).
I expect "island price" to be higher, but I draw the line around 150%.
