Depron Suppliers

[SCOOT]

Anyone know where I can get depron in the UK, tried Beeline models but shipping is 16 quid for 6 sheets, seems excessive to me when the 6 sheets only costs a total of 12.50?????

I just got some from Sam's Models (http://www.samsmodels.demon.co.uk/) shipping was quite cheap if I remember rightly (something like £2 for 5 or 6 sheets).

Maybe beeline's sheets are bigger I don't know - have a look anyway.

Well - I've started making my first (ever) depron plane.....whole kit of parts cut out in under 15 mins - what a great material!!!

Where did you get that price. The highest postage cost is for the 1m sheets with next day delivery at £8.45. For 6 normal sheets of 3mm he quotes £3 P&P.

If you want it really cheap then do a Google search. The manufacturer sells it by the box for £35 inc. P&P (10sq.m)

OK, now I see. He quotes a cheap price on the Depron page but then tries to trick you with an extortionate price when you actually order.

I'd ring him up, I think his online ordering system is f***ked. I bought over the phone earlier this year and paid about a fiver for something in the region of 8-9 mixed sheets.

Thanks for the replies, I'll phone Bee line later and see what he says. If not SAMs has said they stock it and will deliver for a couple of quid, sheets are smaller though 650x250 but that should be ok.

Depron is cheap, but postage is still steep.
