Default Billington Export Ltd Tubes?

Is anyone familiar with this tube dealer? Any stories, good or bad? They have a tube I am looking for that I can't find elsewhere, but I am always a little weary of overseas shipping.

Yes, £50 min for web orders. Last summer, this could have been an issue, but the exchange rate is reasonable right now

Hi,
Suggest you try Colomor and Langrex, both in Uk but no minimum order. Used both for many years, always good price and fast delivery. If you can't find them I can send their web addressess. I believe they both sell a reduced range on eBay but have a much larger range if you contact them direct.

Hope this helps,

David.

Can you post the Colomor and Langrex web addresses here please. It would help many, including myself.

Thank you,
