I need some parts for my string trimmer made by roybi string trimmer, seems
that all the home store types sell it but no one services it.  Wal Mart
sells it but they don't service it or know who does.  Internet shows that
the part I need is $28.00 for a peice of plastic, the primer button, this is
way to much money.  Any one know of a source that is reasonable?

 We have a Farm Supply that carries misc. parts and they have about 8
different ones for about $2 each. You might check some stres like that.

Take it up to ANY power equipment shop and let their parts person see
what it is you need. Ryobi makes engines for a lot of different brands
and they are not hard to find parts for. Most of the carbs are made by
Walbro which are also easy to find parts for.
If it's just a primer bulb you should expect to pay a couple of bucks
for one.

 roybi, sears, mtd, and troy built all have the same part and I will try farm
and fleet and  the more I look this apears to be the same part on a lot of
things besides string trimmers
