I've bought just sleeves and rings many times {not pistons). Also just did an engine where I reused the sleeves but had to buy new pistons. There wasn't a huge difference in prices, between buying piece by piece, or buying a sleeve-piston-ring set. I'm sure that's going to vary by engine make, though.
I just bought some pistons on this site for a Continental Z-134. Buying all the parts in the kit, piece by piece, costs an extra $29.
$232 sleeve kit - with all four pistons, ring set, seals, and four sleeves
sleeves - $26 each pistons = $27 each rings $41 for a complete four cylinder set sleeve seals - $2 per sleeve
By the way, you don't have to replace pistons when the only problem is loose ring grooves. Hastings sells repair shims that I've used many times. Top ring side clearance should not exceed .002" -.005" depending on the engine
