I've yet to find anywhere cheap in London for spokes. Brixton Cycles have the best range, but pricey. My DT Swiss Comp black were 50p each :S Were 30p back in Basingstoke when I got a LBS to order me a load.
Condor never have the sizes I want. London Fields don't understand me on the phone; I've given up with them. Never tried BLB because of their poor service.

Edinburgh cycles are the cheapest I've found at 25p each for DT DB SS. Or ebay for boxes of 100. For a standard build you'll need 64-72 anyway and if you're using matching hubs they'll all be the same length, so you could do this and then ebay the remainder.

www.cyclebasket.com - IIRC i got ACI SSDB for ~14p each. Watch out for the £6 delivery charge though, so only really useful if you're buying a bunch of stuff.

Absolutely. I coughed up because it was either buy the spokes or ride the tube/bus for a week... Easy decision!

If you're still stuck try www.53-12.com, they seem to keep a lot of different sizes of Sapims in stock... They sorted me out when no one else could, no need to buy a full box either...

Black ones are twice the price of the silver ones. It's to cover the obligatory HHSB reparations.

Anyone know where sells spokes at reasonable prices? LBS sells them at nearly a quid each.
Any pointers as to best type would also be appreciated.
