Finding parts isn't as easy as it should be..

I know Lee has parts for everything that they produce, so today I decided to go online and buy some spares for modification and tinkering, and 3D printing, etc..
The only problem was that I couldn't find what I was looking for. It appears the search function on Lee's website isn't quite up to snuff, and their category sorting for parts could use some serious re-vamping.
Even after I finally had the part number, knew exactly where the part was located online, I started feeding part numbers and descriptions into their website search. Not one search test came back with the part I was after, and some came back with zero results altogether. (Part SB1372 - i tried everything I could think of, and the lee website search would not find this part. Google did though.)
My recommendation if you need to find a part:
Use google and tell it site: leeprecision.com/ and then put in your keywords or part number. You're less likely to waste 3 hours like I did going through every single page of every single product trying to find the right items to buy.
I did submit this to Lee, and I sincerely hope they follow up on it.
