Default Places Selling Glass?

Hey,

I'm sorry I know this question has been asked before but I'm going to ask it again. Where have people got quotes for just 6mm glass panels.

So far I have called Crystal Glass, and they have quoted 13.58$ per Sq ft.

I don't need direct prices just some places I can call and hound them myself.

Yeah 13.60 per sq ft seems a little ridiculous and they stated it would take a week for them to cut it to size. Which I clearly don't understand i'm not a professional glass cutter but i'm sure it takes 5 mintues to make 1-2 cuts.

Sorry to hijack a thread but does anyone know how to get a hold of Neil Wilson? Yellowpages number doesn't seem to work.
