Well, I have learned my lesson.

In future I will forget about Pyrocreations and use local dealers
like our very own Cooperman.

I made the mistake recently of ordering from Pyrocreations.

Ordered 120 plastic shells, the international postage came to more than the order cost
plus a £20 import charge from Customs & Excise.

I assume there reverse connections on the join (one inner lip and one outer) so you couldn't use two tops together?

I would hope they offered to send you the 120 bottoms free and if they wanted the excess tops back paid postage to say sorry?

I make mistakes as everyone does, but I do everything I can to put them right at no cost to the other person.

brought some excellent mine tooling and a capacitive discharge firing system made by cooperman himself last week, wasn't expecting much but WOW what quality home-made workmanship you would think he was making them for the queen. :lol:

you cant go wrong even if there's something he don't sell he knows where to get it for a good price.

And on that note does anyone know of a contact for ceramic / alumina balls in the UK?

Currently Steve at Inoxia is gonna be my source as annoying as that is lol as he is the cheapest.

20 or 25mm will be fine but I want a load?

Lets be honest you buy to sell, it has to be the case as otherwise you would buy from me as the prices on my shop on nearly everything you sell are a fraction of your prices. Please note from other comments I've had recently that I dont advertise the shop here, it gets mentioned by others and I comment back, no blatant plugs only my signature as a clue which we allow anyone to have.

we allow anyone at all to offer one off items they are trying to shift such as my recent post about cam straps made to order but I still don't plug the shop. Please stop doing it yourself as Im simply enforcing the rules you agreed to when you signed up Pyrosupplies
