Hi all

 Just to let you know, I used to work for Stagonset and their website has been suspended since I left in July.

A number of us have since set up Westfield Fasteners with a very similar service, offering a range of stainless nuts and bolts at:-

www.westfieldfasteners.co.uk (http://www.westfieldfasteners.co.uk)

I hope this is useful for you!

Matt

Got to be impressed the reply was exactly 1 year to the day though - that's dedication to his art.
