Wardrobe doors

Where can I get some wardrobe doors that are just plain wood cut to the size I want?

The issue I have is that I am replacing 4 wardrobe doors with 2. At the moment it is 2 small doors each above a large door and I wish to make it 2 large doors. Both about 8ftx2ft.

What I need is plain wood that I can paint myself (want to paint them the same colour as the walls and have magnetic push latches so no handles on the doors for a clean "hidden" look).

Every timber merchants I go to look at me like I am nutter and if I go to a wardobe shop/outlet they want to charge me £300-£400 which seems a tad steep for 2 sheets of wood. Or is this really as expensive and I am missing the point?
