Source for furniture legs

I'm toying with the idea of a bit of an 'Ikea hack' to create a mid-century style TV cabinet.

The challenge I'm facing is finding the slim, tapered wooden legs I need.

This kind of thing...

There seem to be options in the US - see here http://retrorenovation.com/2014/02/04/mid-century-modern-retro-table-legs/

and http://www.homedepot.com/p/Waddell-6-in-Hardwood-Round-Taper-Leg-2506/100672298#.UcD66vbFQqI

The only options I've found in the UK are up in the £75 range, which defeats the object of the exercise - and even if the US websites ship internationally, the costs will be prohibitive.

Any suggestions?
