I checked my local Ace, True-Value, TSC, Lowes, H-D, and other hardware stores and all I can find are Roll (aka Tension) springs. DX3 - I'm wondering if you actually found coiled spring pins (aka Spirol pins).

On the left is a Coiled Spring pin, on the right is a Roll (Tension) pin. Spirol is a brand name for their coiled spring pin, much like Xerox has become synonomous for photocopy.
As soon as I get the camera back I'll show you a picture of the Coiled spring pin I purchased at Ace . Something to remember is, not all stores carry the same items in all areas of the country.
