cananyone suggest a cheap supplier for slimline light boxes?

Can anyone suggest a cheap supplier for slimline light boxes (probably needs to be an edgelit type) My customer has seen them on this http://www.edmonds.co.uk/signage-lightb … Lightboxes site but they seem pretty cheap and I don’t know if I can get them at a competetive trade price elsewhere. I need maybe 4 or 8 at about A2 size to be fixed to wire suspension system in a shop window.
Ideas welcome 😀

I’m in the same boat as you at the mo, i was about to post as i thought the quote i was given to be a bit strong.

4700mm by 605mm complete light box inc of all electrics and pannel, single sided.

£290.00 +vat £25.00 + vat P&P

But looking at some of the prices on edmonds jesus…….

my quote was from Universal in Bristol. 0117 955 9091

If anyone has any better suppliers please let us know.

Dan, that sounds like a fair price for your box, I just checked with my normal supplier and their price was £265+vat and carriage but the list is out of date I think.
Thanks for the link cabriofx but even with their Jan sale 20% off still makes an A2 size one more expensive than the public price on the edmonds site 🙄

any other suggestions welcome…

Thanks again Dan but their even more expensive 😥 So far I have these prices for an A2 sized ones –

Ashby – £112
Edmonds – £165
Fast Displays – £210 (exc discount)
Discount Displays – £269

So unless anyone knows of any others it looks like it’ll be ashby that gets the order !

Thanks,

Thanks AGAIN Dan :thumbup2: don’t know where you keep finding all these but your doing a good job !!
My only spec is to have 4 or 8 ultra slimline single sided lightboxes A2 sized. I’ve got to fix them to wire suspension cables but that’s easy enough.

heres more, may be worth playing them of against each other. one of them mentions discount for bulk ordering, 8 sounds like bulk to me.

http://www.assigns.co.uk/fr_index4.html … gelit.html – no prices…
http://www.couttsarken.com/Lighboxes.htm – again no prices
http://www.tensator.com/retail_access_lightbox.htm – again no prices, but these look more internal.
http://www.edgelight.co.uk/lightframe.php – no prices.
