Has anybody seen/heard of any metal dance pads for sale in the UK or within the EU?
I was looking at of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/221591638584 but the shipping plus import vat makes the price a little bit much for me!
Tempting though as the reviews I've managed to turf up are fairly positive!
My maximum budget is around £300.
Thanks! :)

Honestly, for the price, I don't think you will be getting a metal pad. I don't know of any sellers still in existance anymore that sell metal pads other than DDRGame. You can true looking through the DDRGame website, but again you will have to pay those extra fees for import and there really isn't anything cheaper for metal pads. Metal pads are expensive, so for your budget you really can't get one. Though if anyone knows of any other sellers I would be more than happy to see it, as DDRGame pads really are not that great unless you fork out tons of cash.

In fairness the cost plus delivery and import VAT (and the usual "handling fee" Royal Mail impose) would be around the £400 mark so if they really are the only thing on offer, I'll probably just wait a few months and then go for it.
Was just hoping that somebody on these forums might have some idea! I've noted a couple of companies selling them pads/offering them for sale on websites - but it's never a "buy it now" sort of deal, seems to be a case of sending an email and waiting to find out if the company is defunct or not!
I gave some thought to the Omega GX pads, and did get in contact with the people that make them, they do look really good. But it seems that they would require modification to work on my carpet - an idea which I'm not keen on after spending such a large amount of money getting a pad in to the country. :(
Cheers for the reply!
