I have a big random orbital sander, a medium one but wanted something between it and my Dremel. (You can't have enough toys. :B ) I did the research and found what looked like the ideal candidate. The Metabo SX E 400 http://ift.tt/1y6u7D7 so I bought it via a web purchase.
When it arrived, I was a little surprised that it didn't even come with one sanding disk, so the priority was buying some. They are circular 80mm with 6 holes. You wouldn't think this would be a difficult task, but bloody hell, I have spent hours trying to track some down. Extensive searching shows the only one who has it listed for sale in Oz (that I can find) is Metabo itself, so I rang them.
Yep, they are available but they don't sell direct to the public. To make matters worse, the guy I spoke to didn't think any of their retailers carried stock of the sandpaper and would have to order it into stock. If Metabo is the only supplier with stock that fits, that's an issue to my way of thinking.
I rang a big reseller and the news was not good. The 80mm discs they stock have the holes in the wrong place and he had no idea what purchases of this product use.
Does anyone know where I can get some of the right sized discs please?
