Low cost suppliers thread?

[Duck]

Is it worth starting a thread where we can post links to low cost suppliers that we come across?

I just traced the supplier behind an Amazon purchase and turns out they sell products for half the price of Toolstation. Could be worth starting a thread?

Good idea. I'll add one to the list. Aimtools. Cheap power tools and a few engineering bits & pieces. Stock is a bit hit and miss, but some bargains to be had.

So these are the guys I found. Just bought sundries like cable ties and were half the price of Toolstation.

They were an accidental find, they were selling on Amazon and I Googled them and found their website

I only really know local places:

Geo Spence, wortley, Leeds

Surprisingly cheap for an independent.

There's also "Batley bolts" who sell bolts, and are in Batley.
<Edit: actually called "b&d bolts" but I've always known them as above.


Oh.

And "Yorkshire fencing contractors ltd" in East ardsley, Leeds are VERY cheap for (outdoor) timber.


They are all collection only (Yorkshire fencing does local delivery)
