buying cheap individual picks

Postby Rickthepick » 14 Oct 2010 2:59

Is there anywhere that sells individual picks at a fair price?

I mainly use southord slimlines which are a bit battered now.

Thing is, i only use 3 or 4 the others in the set arent much use to me.

To get all the picks i want i need to purchase a £40 set as not all the sets have the same picks.

However i refuse to pay £5 per individual pick

:idea: The pick companies should start doing a 'pick n mix' service where you can purchase a 15 piece set, but choose your own.

Your company can order individual HPCs for 2.98 pounds and Majestics for 1.75 pounds from:

You have to have a business to sign in and see the prices.

Why not buy directly from Southord. I bought my 2nd set individually too.

Funny how shipping from $16-$20 is cheaper than sending it in the states =(

AND

** Orders valuing less than $15.00 and containing only single lock picks / "TW" tension tools (excluding all MAX picks) are charged $2.00 shipping within the U.S., and $3.00 shipping internationally. Adjustment to the shipping cost is made after the order is received.

Pretty sweet ehh?
