If you are looking to buy a large quantity, go to www.stonesandfindings.com. They do wholesale with minimum purchase of $150. And there is also quantity discount too. Their price is really good becasue they buy directly from factories and manufacturers.
Check out their website, it's got a large selection.
You can also search online for wholesale beads. I'm sure a lot of them will come up.

I would look at some of the Bead and Jewelry trade magazines, like "Bead and Button", "Lapidary and Jewelry Artist", "Step-by-Step Beads", etc. There's a bunch of them, and they've all got websites with Pages of Resource links, etc.
I don't have any UK-specific information, but I recently did a search for Bead Business info of all kinds for a couple of friends in the US who have just started a bead store (and art space). Here's an example URL's that you might find useful:

Good luck.

In the back of beading magazines there are ads for many many beading whole salers.
You probably dont even need to buy the magazines, just go to walmart and write down the names and numbers that you find in all of the different magazines.
Good Luck

I bought mine at cheaper prices at fire mountain gems. The more you arder the cheaper they get and you don't need a tax ID number. There is no min. order. I ordered about 470 untits (That is a huge order) and they didn't make any mistakes.
