Clock movements

WeAreGhosts

Does any one know where to buy clock movements? The sort that you put an AA battery in?

i have tried ebay but they mostly come from China - am reluctant to buy from there

Try googling see if that works. Have to say that I always restrict my buys to Europe and UK when I buy from e-bay.....

I have purchased these before. The delivery costs are quite high but if you combine with more items it does not work out that bad

A bit late, but it may help - now or for future reference....

I don't buy clock mechanisms ... I buy cheap clocks and remove the movements and use those.

You can pick up cheap clocks for next to nothing and for less than you'd pay for postage of a clock movement (even if it's in this country!).

Cheap shops.

For example: Poundstretchers. Or any high street type store of that type.
