13k is a standard value in the progression of 5% resistors (10, 11, 12,
13, 15, 18, 20, etc.).  It is difficult to get 10% resistors anymore,
and 5% tolerance is normally used.
If your local parts source does not have them, perhaps they are only
stocking those values from the list of 10% tolerance values to save
shelf space.
