Hi Nikita, I was also wondering where these are available. I did a little bit of research and found this place to be the cheapest. http://www.skiclu...p_engl.php The Japanese pins are supposedly better. If anyone knows a better place for general insect collection and photography supplies, do not hesitate to share the info.I think we should keep this thread as a knowledge base where to buy what. |

I have ordered pins from Vermandel (http://www.verman.../index.php) and Entomoravia (linked to by Xespok above). Both offer good service in english and deliver in a week or two. Vermandel does also sell a reasonable range of other supplies (forceps, micropin blocks = 'polyporus', magnifying glasses etc). Bioquip (http://www.bioqui...) is a U.S.A.-based company. They carry an enormous range of equipment but prices are generally higher than in Europe, even more so after tax + customs. Edited by Kahis on 21-05-2006 10:59 Kahis |

Thank you Xespok and Kahis. Both links looks very useful. But the question about Hamburg is still valid too, otherwise it takes for order, delivery ect. a month, I think. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
