£20.00 per wheel sounds good if you're getting DT Swiss stainless spokes  :daumenhoch: .

I pay £50 per pair for building with the above spokes .

do it yourself man, follow Stidds's guide.

or get Stidds on the case, he charges two packs of tropical fruit bubbalicous and some skittles.

if you have all the bits, go for it yourself, it's great, very relaxing.
