Where to buy spokes

Myself and another lad are getting some custom wheels built but Cliff the wheelbuilder has told us that he doesnt have the stock of spokes needed so we need to source ourselves.
He has advised on DT spokes that need tobe cut to several lenghts.
Any one got any pointers on where to go.
I am goining to drop a mail Custom Cut spokes in the UK and see what they say!

Sorry I don't know the answer as to where to buy the spokes,but you certainly have the right man for the job regarding the wheelbuilder,Cliff knows his stuff.

Bike24 and I think rose sell them individually. Chain reaction/wiggle sell them in packs

Importantly, the wheel builder needs to give you the exact specification, model, and length of each of the (usually 3 different) types of spokes that will be required. And the quantity of each required.
