In collecting parts for my DS9 I need 12 Light Gray Slope 75 2 x 2 x 3
Double Convex.
Sofar the cheapest I found on Bricklink was for $5 and that store only had
one.
Others had more but were more expensive.
What would be a reasonable price for this part. Personally, knowing this
part in light grey is rare, I still think $5 or more for one brick is way
too much.

Can someone point me to 12 of these bricks?

Putting your hands on 12 of these will be a challenge I suspect without
parting with a serious chunk of cash.  BrickLink shows that several two
vendors have the quantity you seek although the price is pretty steep
($6.50 - $9.00 each).

I agree this is a silly amount for a single LEGO element but BrickLink is a
free market and as you can see from the Price Guide, 30 of them have been
purchased for an average of $7.22 each!  It may be easier and cheaper to
change your color scheme!

Peeron reports that this element only appeared in one set, 6273 from 1991.

I suspect the ones on BL were sourced from one of the Model Shops,
Pick-A-Bricks, or Red Letter Days or something like that.

Good luck in your quest.
