www.nordiclooners.com is my new favorite

It's run by a Danish couple who provides very good customer service.

Unfortunately not. The closest one I know to Canada is probably KBI, but most of the sellers I listed ship internationally. Take a look and see who will cost the least for you.

I've ordered from Loonerworld before, they were great. Great customer service and reasonable prices. I was going to order from Cattex, but my order came to about $40 Cdn, and shipping was $60 Cdn.... Maybe a smaller order.... I really want to try their doll.

Anyone used this site before? They seem to have a lot of special balloons.

The original list appears to cover Germany, Italy, Denmark, U.S. Is there any online shops in UK? Shipping cost makes the balloons quite a price, especially if you don't want to order a large quantity.
There are supermarkets & party shops but that means face to face with a cashier.
Any ideas for us in the UK?
