Does anyone know of local Virginia beekeeping supply vendors? I need a cheap extractor....
Check with the local beekeepers club. They may have a good lead on one or they may let you borrow one if you are a member.
Sincerely,

I'd look for a club and see what you can find. The only cheap ones are used ones. :)
I kept bees for 26 years without one:

dadant has a store in Lynchburg but I don't think thats anywhere near Newport News.
I'm in Charlottesville at the moment, so Lynchburg isn't out of the question. Cut comb is awesome, but I want to be able to reuse frames.
>but I want to be able to reuse frames.
Of course you do. But do you want to spend hundreds of dollars to do so?
haha nah
