Hi All,
Found this on the the A/C forum but investigated further. Currently Hainsworth Wool in England has some specials going on on closeouts and seconds. I just recieved this reply from the sales manager.
At this price it is only $25.40 US$/meter or $23.16/ 20+ meters.
At this price would it be worth buying? I'm assuming shipping is additional! I'm waiting for the sample and will post pics when I get it.
Anybody have an idea how much shipping would be from England?
How about it, is there any interests in buying 20+ meters of material for dress coats or other projects? I plan on buying several yards reguardless in hopes to have enough to make a good authentic pair of pants and dress coat.

Dear Mike
Thank you for your e-mail.
We have 69.4 metres of DO108 Doeskin Rifle Green on our Slight Seconds list. This fabric has a poor finish and a slightly blothcy appearance - I will send you a large sample to look at.
The minimum order quantity is just 0.5 metres and the price per metre is £17.00. However if you order 20+ metres I can offer this at £15.50 per metre.
I hope that this is of interest and look forward to hearing from you once you have received the sample.
Very best regards
Gill Rushton
