    For a feature internal wall. Only need about 6m2. I want the old salvaged type look, not new ones. Tried Outhaus but they're very expensive. Also tried some builders providers, Woodies, B&Q etc. Can anyone recommend a supplier?

    if you want salvaged then best place would be salvage yard, or have a look on adverts for full bricks and cut them yourself

    Thanks, but not interested in cutting them. I want to buy them in a box ready cut!

    thats why they are generally expensive. its cheaper to buy a full brick than a slip because of the additional work of cutting involved. Any of the slips that are moulded as slips never look real so you are paying for what you get. There are no a lot of options on it as there is not a big market for brick slips. The only other place to try is your local fireplace supplier/contractor as they use more brick slps than anyone else.
