Where you find them? Also did they have any more.
Could do with a decent stash of decent flap discs again.

I think that's optimistic for England.
Only on the 9" discs of those i have, the rest have no kind of date markings at all. Not all of them are old stock.
They all came from ebay, various different listings. They're all a mix of brands from different sellers.

Is that punch and rivet set a generic eBay jobbie?
I was looking at those, if you wouldn’t mind will you report back on how good they are

Ebay special, indeed.
I'll be having at it fairly soon, as the pop studs have popped into the distance somewhere. Only got two remaining, and no reason to think they'll hang around any longer than their brethern.

I hope so. I actually don't go through them fast at all, but since good ones are often £3-5 each (Bosch are over £5/ea at Screwfix.) it made good sense to stock up when they can be found so cheap.
I paid £7 for one Norton 9" grinding from Screwfix, but got 10 of them off ebay for £8.

Yeah why not if you can get a cheap deal on good stock
I bought some budget flap discs from eBay. Complete utter tosh. Each 60 grit discs lasts approximately 3 micro seconds, and I’m being generous

There are some very good ones out there cheap, often industrial brands that are lesser known. Have a look for Tundra, Norton, Garryson, Klingspor, Bibielle, Dronco, they're all good brands.
I bought a bunch of Abracs to try out, never used them before.

If they look safe and good to use, they're probably good to use This is why we don't take angle grinder guards off Big grinding stones for pedestal grinders - not worth taking chances with - but small sub-5" cutting/flap discs... not really much kinetic energy stored there.
+1 on all those brands Moose mentioned. The daddy of abrasives for me is Pferd, but they aren't cheap. Klingspor is my second favourite.
