    Hi , im wondering if anybody knows the names of the company's in europe , that the log cabin companys in ireland import from . We would like to buy one, and I was wondering if we cut out the middle man , if we could save a lot of money. As the irish company's have to be making serious profit margin.or do they buy in bulk therefore probably save nothing impoting it ourselves.

    I'd be very surprised if the producers in Europe would sell directly to you and cut out their agents in ireland.
    Anyway, if you did buy directly, I'd guess there are tons of issues with building these cabins. To save a couple of grand, you'd be buying yourself a heap of headaches.
    You're saving so much when buying a log cabin compared to building with block, best to use the installers in ireland, and be happy that you've still saved a shedload...

    you want to cut out the retailer by going straight to the wholesaler ?
    none of the wholesalers I buy from would give you the time of day.

    You'd be better of trying to find retailers in europe that are willing to ship to ireland

    Depending on the size of this shed you may get a better price locally?

    Have you priced around?
