So, I'm undertaking an interesting project, and one thing I need is to find some Raw EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) Beads. I've been looking on google, Du-Pont, Dow, 3M, BASF, and can not find any place that sells these for any less than $6.50 / Cu/FT.

Of course, all these places are retail and want to make a huge profit. I need about 150+ Cu/Ft of EPS Beads. I was just curious to see if anyone knows where to pick some up, if they happen to have any connections in the wonderful world of polymers.

And yeah, WAY off topic
