Okay, so it is not a how do I?, but more a where do I?

Where do people buy their material from in the UK?
I have been using Ebay for small bits of brass etc, but are there any suppliers I should be using direct for a better deal?

A Google search has not revealed anything much.

Ian.
I use Ebay, a lot.

But, this is my other supplier..... http://www.nogginend.com/

I have used them before, and seen them at the shows.
I have also come across these: https://maccmodels.co.uk/
Their prices look good. Can anyone recommend them?

Unfortunately, it seems to be the postage on items that make them expensive.
This place is probably within driving distance: http://www.collegeengineering.co.uk/home.htm
Again, can anyone recommend them?

Another supplier to look at:

http://www.m-machine-metals.co.uk/

I've bought from them at the shows.

I buy a lot via ebay because its convenient and don't have to venture out with downtime. Factor in the delivery costs.
Large orders ASC, which reminds me.

Wouldn't recommend College attempted to collect on two separate arranged occasions ie 10 mins and couldn't be bothered to answer the door.
