Rod building materials and hardware

[Leonr]

I hope this is not an old question but I had a quick look in search and did not find to much...

Where can I buy rod building hardware in the UK, mostly eyes, and cork?

It will have to be online i just dont want to go the American route as it can get complicated with the VAT and import duty, slowing things down as well.

Thanks for any info.

You can try these, they probably have the widest choice and best prices.

Having said that, by not looking at the States you are seriously limiting your choices, and you will be paying more.

I order from the States on a regular basis, I would say that better than 50% of the time I don't get asked to pay tax etc, and when I do it is no bother, and you will still end up paying much less.

 

Have a look here and look at the prices from the dealers on the left
