Eddystone A,B, BB Enclosures in Germany

I just found this Website:
http://www.schukat.com/schukat/schukat_ ... A27969PSLA
(Minimum Order: 25 EUR; Postage to GER: 5,50 EUR)

The Prices are pretty good, especially for the A enclosures that regularly cost more than B sized ones anywhere else.
I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a group buy, unfortunately i probably can't lay out the costs of a large order beforehand.

I would want to take three or four A sized enclosures and five to six B sized enclosures.

cheers

Thats looking good, i would be in for a group buy. it looks like schukat doesnt have any stock thow.
I would be in for 10/20 b sized boxes depending on price.
Look here http://www.canford.co.uk/Products/16-70 ... CAST-BOX-C

Thats even cheaper

yeah they have stock of 500 of the A and BB kind, and over 1000 of the B size. You can actually switch the language on the website to english if you want (top left).

the link you posted is pretty cheap as well, but notice that the prices are in pound sterling and that would be the same (a little bit more) than the Schukat price for 10 pieces, unless we buy 100+. Also Schukat shipping is rather cheap (inside germany, don't know about euro shipping).

i couldn't find them, only the GAPco home brand, which is about the same pricewise. Can you post a link?
I really like the eddystone enclosures because they have real corners not the round ones.
And they have a better feel than those taiwanese/chinese ones that are all rough.
