Default LS3 rocker arm stands....what am I missing?

I'm putting LS3 heads and a L92 intake on my '01 LQ4. I've bought the offset rockers and now I'm looking to get the rocker arm stands/pedestals to match.

Lengenfelter has them for $6.26/ea:

Everywhere else online is like $13-$20:

What am I missing here? I know this is a trivial amount of money, but I'm over budget already and pennies count.

I just put the GM PN into partszoneonline and they came up as $6.23, so there must be some mark up unless some are selling them in pairs..

i think you end up paying twice as much after shipping.

I didn't know the pedestals were different? I thought it was just the rockers themselves?

The cathedral port heads and square port heads definitely utilize different pedestals!
