Jamie, he has quite a few decent size ones but the price is not cheap - $99 each. I've seen this size sold in Brisbane flea market for $10 each. I was just a few minutes too late to grab a couple :(
Always we hope someone else has the answer.

Thanks everyone.
I'll make some phone calls and see what I can track down.

Eddie - it's actually for a friend and it turns out they want something smaller.

Sean, how small/large do you want it, and what price range are you thinking of? I have some here, it just depends on exactly what you're looking for.
Regards

Taffy.
