Squeaky office chair wheels

The casters on my office chair are noisy as all hell. I suspect because they were made by the lowest bidder. Since I sit in it so much, and am on a hard floor, it's driving me nuts. So I was looking around and really wanted to get a set of these:
Isn't that a great idea? Skate wheels instead of these cheap plastic ones. The only problem is cost....stupid things are expensive. I mean, I could just barely justify the $35 cost...but $8.50 for shipping? Christ thats more than 1/2 the cost of this damn chair I think. Any thoughts?

Think of it like this: Next time your chair squeaks, would you part with a dollar to avoid it? If so, and it only squeaked once a day, it'll be worth it in about 6 weeks, and you'll probably never have to buy casters again!

It would be worth the effort, if it got rid of an annoyance.
