$.54 USD? That's $.58 AUS – a bloody rip off!

Cheaper than $.54?  I don’t see it.

10 for $5.39 — share them with your friends!

Tripod screw threads are usually 1/4-20 or 3/8-16, and as you point out these 
screws and nuts and threaded rod are available almost anywhere (in the US).

The conversion screw indicated by Jeff is a specialized item, and I
would not know where elase to find it, except maybe ebay.

FYI, generally speaking, all photo and film camera and tripod threads
are, if I am not mistaken, standard UNC threads, that is, industrial
threads. This means that many screws for cameras can be found in good
hardware stores for about a dime.

I have an Arri S and looking for a special adapter that will convert the
inches on my tripod screw to millimeters. Any idea where I can find such a
thing.


It's not inches to millimeters, it's a conversion from a 1/4'-20 thread to a
3/8-16 thread.  Here's an (overpriced) example of what you need.  They used
to cost $1 or less.  But I am old!
