Where to buy screws for electronics

    Bit of a generic title, but I recently repaired a nexus 7, the problem is that I lost most of the screws. It doesn't really affect the operation of the device, but the connections ports are a bit wobbly, so I wanted to get a few screws to help hold it in place.

    From searching the web it looks like I need
    Thirteen 3.2 mm silver Phillips screws
    Two 4.25 mm black Phillips screws

    and of those, the 2 4.25 mm screws are the most important.

    I could buy the screws on ebay, but it works out at ~€20 uinc p&p for the full set and it is more than I am willing to pay.

    Is there anywhere in Ireland that sells small screws like this either individually or in small quantities.
    I am guessing if I was in the States, Radioshack would probably have them. Is there an equivalent in Ireland.
    Thanks
