Where else is good to buy cheap(ish) 7ft+ rugs from other than Equestrian Clearance? As they have all sold out

I am also looking for places other than Ebay as well. I am not looking for anything particularly fancy, so far the cheapest I have found has been DH, does anyone else have any other suggestions?
Thanks to those who post

Frogpool Manor Saddlery generally have a sale around the beginning of the new year and have a website. They usually have a number of large rugs 7ft plus.
I've found mine by trawling various links via ebay (to other saddleries) and you can guarentee they always have biggies for sale.
 
I have just bought a pack of the 3 rugs, but the largest they had I think was 6ft9. However they do have a couple of their own rugs in 7ft so they are certainly an option. Do you know what the quality of PE rugs are like as I haven't seen them before.
 
I've ordered the one with the belly guard, I would have preferred the other one but it only has elastic on one side which according to my saddler is a big no no, I just couldn't refuse the other one at that price

I was also tempted by the brow bands but think Charlie would kill me if I put any bling on him

Another vote for Premier here, all my rugs are from them, and are 7ft 3. They are really generous with their sizing and the rugs are lovely and deep. They do not shift like some other makes do. Great quality and all i will buy now.
I have lots

In fact i am selling a very well known rug in 7ft 3 as it doesn't fit my lad as well as the Premier

Oo really, how come it is a big no no?
They don't have the bling I wanted in the sale, so he will have to wait until next christmas until he is forced to wear one

He got off lightly earlier in the year, I ordered a cheap one from the Robinson's sale but my bridle won't go through the holes and I keep forgetting to see if the cobbler will be able to make them larger.
 
what size is the beast? all makes come up different sizes! i have a big big 17.2 in a 6'9 FAL. let me know could get you super large in a couple of makes!
 
I am not 100% as the horse is not mine, I am shopping around for the owner as she doesn't have the internet and doesn't want to buy a expensive branded one. The horse is currently in a 6ft6 from ebay, which fits like a mini skirt on her. I would say she was 17hh and is part shire I think, she isn't overly wide. The owner is going to air on the side of caution and get at least a 7ft.

Premier Equine rugs top quality - won't buy anything else now.
