Default Cheapest place for Honda rod/main bearings?
On my last build I bought them from either Majestic or San Leandro Honda and they weren't exactly cheap, they run about $8 for each bearing half, 18 pieces total. Plus shipping.

This might be wishful thinking, but just wondering if anybody knows of any cheaper places to order Honda bearings from.

I don't want to buy an ACL or King bearing "set" that needs block machining to match all the same sized bearings so that's part of the reason why I prefer Honda ones. I had good luck last time just matching the block/crank codes and everything plastigaged out perfectly with no machine work on the crank or block.

Honda bearings are money. Unless you know someone who works there and you get employee pricing what you paid is fair

Then you are either extraordinarily lucky or aren't using plastigage correctly.
