I've found an online haberdashery wholesaler who has a minimum order of £20.

They do 72 metal bobbins for sewing machines for £4.50 !!!

They've got ribbon, buttons etc etc on there....

Have fun!! (how hard can it be to spend £20 ?!?!)

What's the saying ........ "if it sounds too good to be true....?"

Prices don't include VAT and shipping is £7.00. My £27 order checked out as £40 :mad:

That the thing with wholesalers - high p&p andyou have to add vat.

don't mean to be rude about there website but there photos look really unprofessional which shocked me TBH.

Nice find though!

That sounds like a great idea :)
But wouldn't we have to get it delivered to one person then pay for postage to post on?? would still be cheaper though I guess.

It probably wouldn't be any cheaper on postage, but you wouldn't have to spend £20 (plus VAT) per order.

Jules for instance only wants the scissors at £2.25, but if I know Jules she will have managed to spend the minimum amount (!!)

Maybe we should do it for lots of orders??

For example - we all love the fabrics in America (Reprodepot etc), but it's always the shipping that puts me off.....

Maybe something to think about?

Just a quick question about wholesalers. What are the conditions of use? Do I have to be registered as a business? Right now it's just a hobby but as I'm sure your all aware hobbies are expensive. So if I could use wholesale sites that'd be great. Any ideas?

JBJB - loads on that site I could quite happily buy, thanks for the link.
