how much do peeps reckon a mirror(on its own) would cost from a glazier?


48"x36"

Thanks.


Aargh! (but it matches the email address...)

try ikea. they have some 3' x 4' ish mirrors for about 60 quid well, they did in bristol a few weeks ago. YMMWV

a) There's been a thread largely condemning the use of the word 'peeps'. b) Your email address starts 'allo'...

nope! it starts allo@ha as in greetings of the hawiian ilk. :-)

When you've finished, it's £140 6mm no bevel.

So go to IKEA and buy a cheap one.

I will now treasure the one that's bigger, has holes cut for hanging and cost me £15 at the local glazier 20 years ago!

out at half that price.

Thanks anyway MrP.

You won't get it for half...you may be lucky and get it for a tenner a square foot, which will still make it £120

Bought about the same size (to order) myself, drilled at 4 corners, cost me bout £35 5 years ago.

The message from "The3rd Earl Of Derby" contains these words:

Three and seven eighths.

I have one propping up my garage wall. 4'x3' bevel edge, used to have a nice gilt frame now covered in what otherwise would have covered the garage wall. No guarantee it will improve bedroom performance but yours for a modest sum:-)

My modest sum would be 40GBP,but you're probably somewhere out of reach of this neck of the woods. :-)

If 750mm x 950mm (29.5" x 37.5" ish) with drilled holes and bevelled edges is near enough, I've one in good nick that I took off the bedroom wall a couple of weeks ago.

Email me if you're interested.

You'll need to collect from Leeds, though...

I'd call that generous:-)

I'm fond of complaining that I farm within 15 miles of 1 million plus people which gives a rather centre-ist view of location. Mid-West Herts.

I'd say about £120 these days...

Thanks for the offer,but its too small.

mmm, 400% inflation in 5 years, must be some sort of civil war I hadn't heard about in Sherwood.

What is the mirror for? In theory a mirror needs to be only half the height and width of a person, in order to see the whole of themselves in it. Do you have someone there who is 96" high and

72" wide? :)

I can buy a framed mirror that I can see the whole of myself in, for about £20 here in NZ. I can't believe UK prices.
