    Howya Darren

    If thinking of membership, go for it worth it.

    Just a question but who is your main vinyl supplier. I use Sign Digital as they are great for deliveries.

    Hi Joe, yep, sign & digi are good to deal with was in there today actually, I also use O’Sullivans they’re only 5 min away from each other so if you’re looking for something one of them is bound to have it, or something close to it, O’Sullivans stock more, S&D hang to core range eg black & white colours, whereas O’S have it all there, mind you if you’re picking up it can take a while to get it from the warehouse at times.. prices for diff materials are also worth checking against each other. O’S also supply corrieboard etc but if you’re a new customer they’ll only take cash (not even a cheque!) and orders must be over 50 eur I see from now on for cash sales… hope that helps!

    Haven’t used O’Sullivans yet but being thinking about it, the corroboard is good to know. Do they have a pricelist like Sign&Digital? having prices in front of you is much easier.

    They do, I’d say get them to email it to you, as far as I can remember they have just various photocopies of diff prices lying around, the s&d catalogue/pricelist is very handy indeed tho.. compact and all included, nice presentation too

    Know anyone selling scalpel blades, I keep dropping them and am out. Nothing like stabbing yourself or working with 1/2 blades to improve the day. 🙂

    Glad to see you, snappy dresser, too! 😀

    I’m afraid my sources are all US so they wouldn’t be much help. I buy blades by the gross from Sign Warehouse

    Best,

    Steve
