Check out this shop called 'amps-n-bits in Worthing:

They have an ebay shop and luckily, they happen to sell nickel 5 string sets for about £10-12. They're pretty good strings too - made at the same factory that Picato strings are (or were) made.

Hope that helps,

Nik

I've bought a few packs of Nickel Hartke 5 string sets off ebay:

At these prices it's got to be worth a punt, unless anyone's got any horror stories about them? I bought 2 triple packs and have only got one set left (I do have three 5-stringers to put them on though). Didn't get stung at customs either, which was nice...
