that is if they can actually be arsed to tell you that the items are now out of stock, shower of *********************** when it comes to customer service.
When you put an order together check the postage, the remove an item or two, play with the order, it can be cheaper on postage to actually place two separate orders.
I've got a trade account with European Army Surplus, but you have to bulk buy and the prices vary a lot, some stuff is cheap other stuff is high street prices
French F2 Jackets are not bad, they would get to me for about £8 each

Those thermal trousers are very good, as it happens I've a Sleeka jacket with a broken zip and the side zips on the trousers are a perfect replacement, so one fixed sleeka for £2 + P&P can't be bad

I notice they sell immersion suits for £20.
those things are made from ventile.
Might be worth a look.

Thanks for the heads up rik,
I bought:
thermal underwear set, 4 pairs wool sock, baraclava, trouser liners, headover and divers liner to try.
says on the site you will be billed if no one is in to collect, unless you specify delivery options, i said put in the blue bin round the back ( the paper one, is clean stuff in it) fair do put in an order two days later missed delivery note, so i look in bin, hrm... move bin to more obvious spot, since its marked for redelivery, try to phone parcel force but stupid automated system so think no more.
again next day missed delivery :| 40 mile round trip, im at parcel force warehouse, one guy in front getting served, steps back to wait on parcel, "can i help you sir" to me pass the leaflet over, "1 second sir" returns with very large box, me thinking this is the prior customers order being brought over, i turn to the other customer and say " i thought that was mine for a second" as i step back, the guy behind the counter says it is!!
bairly fitted in the back of the estate car, here is a pic of it on a 2 seater couch and all the stuff rolling about, no wonder the guy never put it in the blue bin!! bit over kill for some socks, trousers and hat!!
btw i was tempted for the immersion suit, the divers liner is bnwt and some of the other stuff is to, the soldier 95shirt and the socks have signs of wear. cant complain v.pleased
