Yep, checked them out earlier, and there's one 5 miles from me! Will give them a call on Monday.

Cheers for all the responses, if I find it cheap, I'll let you all know!

Cheers

I last bought some alloy sheet on 21/09/09 From my local steel stockists

1.2mm half hard was £31.50 +vat & 2mm was £49.50 +vat
Full sheet size of 2500 X 1250

I thought it was quite expensive till I got some local quotes elsewhere, One quoted £96 + vat for the 2mm

Just thought I'd let you all know, if you want some Ali sheet at the moment, Industrial Metal Services (IMS) in Essex were the cheapest by far.

Comparison:

For: 1 off 2mm 8 x 4 NS4
2 off 1.2mm 8 x 4 NS4

Parkers - £205 inc vat
SPA - £147 inc vat
Aalco - £151 inc vat

IMS - £110 inc vat!

These are all based on collection.

Hope this helps someone, IMS are nice guys to deal with, and if you need delivery it's £25 + vat

Cheers

Adrian
