Hi,

there are no large 2nd hand sellers in the Uk with a shop that I know of.

Travelling Man (a northern based company) used to be very good, but their buyer left about 4 years ago and their Used stock has gone downhill since.

If you are in Essex, I am happy to make an appointment and you can see our stock (I live in South Essex, 20 mins or so from the bridge). I currently have 5000+ items.

Other than that, its finding individual games shops with small-ish selections.

Cheers,
malc

Hay Laaar, I am neither a Southerner nor a Woollyback, being originally from Everton.

As a Scouser, honesty is second nature to me  :D

So you can buy from me with confidence  :D

Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure I DON'T have a minty Bone Hill.

Cheers,
Malc

Kmant provides a list of Role Playing Shops in the UK. Unfortunately the list is now outdated, with a number of Shops gone out of business but still the list is a good basis to find a stockist of Role Playing material near you.
