Not in Seattle, but online:

Fantastic Musical Instruments
Ebay
or
http://www.traditionmusic.com/main.html (these can take a while to get)

The FMI ones are as good as any and will arrive quickly.

hey man I'd check out Salty Dogs... you can find em on ebay... nylon like the weedwackers but they dont completely lose all tonality on the lower strings... I'm tuned CGCF and still get actual notes out of my bottom strings. plus they're like 25 bucks a set.
