Toom, OBI, most Baumarkt.

Basically you can buy them indvidually (they have little bags which you fill up and then mark with the appropriate quantity and code number for the cashier) or in multi-packs.

Schrauben Mutter

QUOTE
I needed three M5's, with wall plugs and a left hand threaded M8 but I didn't want to buy the super-packs like you get on the DIY stores. No problem. It cost just over one Euro. Anyone looking to fasten anything anywhere will find what they need at "Schrauben Mutter" on Ickstattstraße. Founded in the fifties by one Wilhemine Mutter, this is a genuine speciality shop. If they don't have the screw you need in stock, they'll get one made for you.

Schrauben Mutter
Ickstattstrasse 12, Munich Isarvorstadt
U-Bahn U1/2 Fraunhoferstrasse

ahhh didn't think my topic title would last wrong.

cheers for the info. Although i dont have a clue where any of these are... Are any of them around ost bahnhof or marienplatz? or do i have to make a special trip to Fraunhoferstrasse for 4 screws?

Sorry, did anyone else just read 'desperate' and 'screw' in the same sentence and think of something else...?? ph34r.gif

Talk a walk up Schwanthalerstr. There's at least half a dozen shops that sell screws. We use OBI but only 'cause it's close to home.

Near Marienplatz you have Schrauben Preisinger where you can get sorted too. Looks pretty good from the website.

yeah i was gonna put "desperate for a screw - my beds out of action"

As i need to fix a bar back onto my bed to get my damage deposite back:(

Schrauben Mutter is fuckin' ace! You can buy a single screw in there. They do everything, BSPP, BSPT, M, NPS, NPSF, NPT, NPTF and PG.

But, the staff can be a bit "Hello Duckie". cool.gif

Hertie at Hauptbahnhof (4th floor near the lighting I think, Stacchus end) sells screws.
I thought that this was an anti-Capitalism thread though at first glance.
I must be getting old. sad.gif

I have seen screws and tools in Kustermann just off of Viktualienmarkt so not far from Marienplatz.

You can also try the DIY section of Kaufhof. I think I saw scres there and Treehugger: great minds think alike wink.gif

near Ostbahnhof there is "Toom", which is a 5 minute walk. Right next to the Siemens building on Haidenauplatz.

All this talks of screws and screwing things and not one mention of suckfull. I am dissappointed. wink.gif

Suckfüll on Türkenstr. also does screws. I think they do singles too. Happier Eurovol?
Yeti
But do they do screws for singles ?
arshoo
And there HAS to be a discount for 1 inch singles!
eurovol
All the screws you want at this shop. tongue.gif

(boring old bloke back to the subject without adolescent sniggering alert) If you need somewhere central, I find Kustermann useful. It has an entrance from behind Marienplatz and one from Viktualienmarkt, so handy if you commute via Marienplatz. Screws (stop sniggering at the back, Smith) are downstairs on the Viktualienmarkt level. The service is German neanderthal, but they have a big range of all household stuff, so you always (eventually) find what you're looking for.
