I came across this website the other day:
http://www.chartsales.co.uk/pages/home.htm
They sell all Admiralty charts and publications, including new, second-hand, and 'cancelled' (i.e. not the current issue).
The price that caught my eye was £2.65 for the second-hand cancelled charts - "not to be used for navigation" - but no doubt plenty of uses for initial planning / wreck research / etc.
They also do others at £7.65 - the current editions but still needing the updates from the Notes to Mariners - all easily tracked down on the UKHO website. And the same but with these hand-written changes already done at £10.55. Plus new charts at what seems to be the standard £17.60.
I'll add a follow up post after my cancelled ones arrive to advise their condition - I ordered 8 in total which, with P&P included, worked out to about £3.50 each.
I was also quite interested in the new joint RYA / UKHO chart portfolios on CD - about £40 for quite a wide area, including some basic software to run them - until I saw these expire on 31st Dec each year!
Regards,
Neil
