As the title says..

I know I could take a piece of paper and cut some out myself, but I want them to look decent, preferably be see-through and made of a solid material (plastic)

Are there any sites that sell these in bulk at a decent price? I've tried ebay, but all I find is complete sets of all the templates/markers, usually taken from the Dark Vengeance kit. I do not need flamer templates or the large blast markers, I just want the small ones, and I want many of them.

Thanks!

If I were you I would go to a window/glass store. They should sell lexan glass. Which is similar to plexiglas but will not shatter when you cut out your circles. Ask them to cut out the circles. They may have scrap pieces laying around also

Just out of curiosity, what do you need a lot of them for?

I play Renegades & Heretics with a lot of Quad Launchers, it's nice having several markers due to the Multiple Barrage rules.
There is also The Purge detachment in the new Siege of Vraks book where I leave blast markers in place and they're treated as dangerous terrain until my next shooting phase. So having enough of them to cover my opponents table half would be convenient

Also just nice to have several as I keep losing them.

That's a good idea, thanks! I just hope the stores around here have decent prices on doing things like that.

If I remember right they shoot 3" templets right?

can't beat 75 cents a pop.

If you want the engraveing, it's $3 a pop.

They look quite good. I can't find shipping costs anywhere on their page, though?

Probably because they won't ship? Buyer beware is a good course of action if you do choose to go with Advance Deployment.

Wait what? I've ordered from them multiple times And never had a issue except for once.

That was when I did a black Friday order, when they get swamped with orders. Every other time the wait seemed reasonable to me.

I guess Pennsylvania is just too far to ship. I had two gaming buddies that each made orders with them. After 2-3 months of no response, both of them tried to charge back the money. I think one was able to get his money back and the other was outside the grace period.

I've ordered from them 3 times and never had anything like that happen. =S

Quite surprising news to me in all honesty.

Thanks!

For the people talking about shipping, there is an option to estimate shipping costs after you add items to your basket, at least there was for me. $10 shipping to Norway isn't that bad, considering how expensive things are here, so unless the window store I contacted can come back to me with a good deal I think I'll go for the ones linked here

Advanced Deployment has a history of spotty service at best with huge wait times and no communication. I recommend Pyrkol or Warsenal for all your template needs. Litko is another good option.
