internal door handles, cheapest place for something nice?

Having found a nice man to paint all my brown internal doors white for me i thought I would change the door handles from horrid cheap plain brass ones to nice chrome or nickel ones.
I have just been to B&Q and could not believe the cost!
I have looked on ebay and can't find anyone selling nickel ones which I actually prefer. Chrome is a bit shiny and brushed looked a bit cheap.
Who sells cheap but nice door handles. I need 14 pairs.
Many thanks

I recommend these: http://www.wickes.co.uk/Posts-Accessories+Wire/Latch-Handle-Door-Set/invt/163976
We have them throughout our house. They look the bees knees and are excellent quality. Not exactly 'cheap' but for a premium finish, they work out to be good value. (I looked EVERYWHERE to compare at the time)0 -
We have just purchased 9 pairs of mitred satin stainless steel handles which also came with hinges and latches etc off ebay from traditionalironmongery

We haven't fitted them yet but they look really good quality0 -

Thanks, this is the sort of thing I am looking at but trying to find it with a cheaper price tag!
I can't believe there are no Nickel ones on ebay.0 -

Trust me I looked long and hard, and had it in my search alerts on Ebay for ages, nothing ever came up. Others round here will probably vouch for me that I leave no stone unturned when I've got it on me about something in particular.... If you do find similar cheaper, I'd LOVE to know!0 -
I have just come back from Wickes, they are very nice, my local store only had one box that looked like it had been there forever, I will see if I can get them to get some in for me if I can't find anything like it discounted. I need 4 boxes and 2 bathrooms ones so over £230!!
Many thanks0 -
