I noticed at the last twice yearly Meet that someone was selling rubbers for stamp cutting. Can anyone give me details and / or contact?

At the last Meet last year I found the seller of the rubbers.
He had a stall at the very entrance to the hall and from the address on his bag :
The rubbers were being sold at 50p each though he got them I am sure from the 'Stationary Box' (or their suppliers) @ 29p or less! I bought, over a year, 350 rubbers at 29p from Stationary Box back in 2000/08 or so. (the price did not vary!)
His profit margin you can easily see, and it grieves me that someone should want to make such a profit when they are supporting such a thing as the Letterboxing Community at the special Meet.
Had his prices been more to that of Stationary Box I would have bought a lot more.
Alternative sources may now mean I do not need his supply!

can someone give me some advice on where to buy rubber for carving and what is best and what is not,is speedy carve any good???,
Speedy carve is good. Depending on the size of the stamps you want to do, the guy from the Okehampton printing shop sells rubbers at the meet which are ideal.
