I am reminded:

A couple of summers ago I was with my family in
Greece, visiting my wife's family's summer house, and
I needed a couple of 1/4-20 screws for making a camera
mounting. 

It took some hunting around to find them in the small
town where we were staying.  I eventually found some
at a shop that specialized in tractor parts, since
there are a lot of John Deere tractors in Greece.
