Default where to get band clamps

so i only have the 1" band clamps on my longtubes and y-pipe but want to change them to the 3" form fitted ones that pretty much delete exhaust leaks. does anybody know where i can get them? NAPA sells them for $12 a pop and i need 4 of them, any other suggestions?

I bought some a long time ago at trucking store. But the smallest they had was for 4" diameter pipe.
