You could try an electrical wholesaler such as Eecol or Westburne.

Ridout Plastics Co. Inc. (USA)
$13.50 per 2'x4' panel (much cheaper than anything I could find in Canada and they will sell individual panels. Everywhere else required a whole box sale. I don't know how much the brokerage fees are yet, but I'll let you know if you're interested.

BRS also sells 2x2 pieces which I discovered after I'd forgotten this thread.
