steel is in short supply and current prices mental

I had a large project BBQ in mind and had been adding to a basket of a well know metal supplier for a few days. Was at about 400 quid, then a story in the media about a massive shortage of British steel yesterday and price has now tripled Censored Censored Censored Censored

Anyone know online sellers in the EU with sensible prices ?

I use these https://www.themetalstore.co.uk

Good prices, free cutting and quick delivery When you are dead, you do not know you are dead. All of the pain is felt by others. The same thing happens when you are stupid.

It appears nobody escapes Covid related shortages

At work we were due delivery of four new Sprinters from Mercedes next month. They have all just been delayed until September because Mercedes can't get Nox sensors for them.

We have a further 16 on order for delivery between now and October, they have all been delayed too.
