I got some not long ago from a shop in Canada, unfortunately the name completely escapes me... I will dig around and try to find it.

Ok, the brand I got was "Model Scene" , not Polak. They look very similar? Anyway, the ones I bought look fantastic to me.

 I found them here, but much of the selection seems to be forever out-of-stock:

I tried modelmania but the site won't let me check out my basket on paypal for some reason. They only have one of each in.

Hi,
had you ask at Polak directly? maybe are any distributor nearby? (http://www.polakmodel.com/en/text/main/Sales-1.html)
further to modelmania - some mats are available within 72hrs, perhaps they don't offer more than have already on shop's shelfs.

cheers

I've been stymied every time I've tried to purchase them. If anyone comes up with a reliable source, I'd appreciate hearing about it.

The last mat I purchased was from Modeller Warehouse in Brisbane, Australia.  http://modellers-warehouse.com.au/grassmatsrange0b.html

As far as I know they are still in business.

drdave try another browser. a while back i was having trouble with paypal trying to buy something it kept redirecting me and wouldnt allow it to process. i dont remember if i was on internet explorer or firefox but i tryed the other and it worked. apparently sometimes browsers have issues with some site software. just give it a try it worked for me.

drdave,
I drop to modelmania store just quarter ago - they may have supplies of Polak's items every 3 weeks - if you can wait - the quantity will not be a problem.
The fact is - on the spot are only few mats.

have a nice weekend
