Best 2 I can think of with a good range of shafts etc are Clubhouse Golf and Snaiton Golf. Always seem to have a good selection on the current year ranges.

golf buy it online offer a full custom fit option
plus they have a sale on at the moment 10% off everything, if you're looking at a new full set you can save yourself quite a bit
i've ordered some mizuno jpx 825 irons from them for £435, there £500 or so everywhere else...

Always found Snainton to have the options I want, and decently priced.

Where abouts are you based? Online fitting may work, but in my experience people's swings differ. Someone of 6ft + could have a flag lie, today I fitted a customer of 5ft5" ish 1 degree upright.
Please pop to a local pro or good custom fitter and have the clubs sorted for your swing.

This is NOT CUSTOM FIT imo!

Think the OP was recently fitted properly with 'he who shall not be named'

If you know know your spec from a previous fitting, these clubs will be "non-standard", although I agree, it's not, strictly, a custom fit.

If you know that you are +2 degrees upright and 1/2in longer shafts and been recommended a certain shaft in irons then you are buying custom fitted clubs. They are not std and customised to your specs.

Ok, I have ordered what I want from golfbuyitonline
. I agree the online custon fit is crap so Just to clear up the custom fit scenario, I have been properly fitted by a local fitter. I only opted to have the driver and 3 wood at the time by now as i had bought a hybrid not so long ago, I put them in my bag and my hybrid doesn't match so I decided I wanted to get it aswell. Obsessive I know!!! I called the person who fitted me who advised me to get the same shaft as the other 2. His price was a bit much so I was looking online which has worked out a bit cheaper.

You also have to consider how long ago you were fitted. If the figures you have are from a previous fitting a year or more ago, chances are they are no longer accurate.
Also take into account different manufacturers lie angles and other factors, as they are all different. I read somewhere that different shafts work better/worse with different heads, so getting this right is also pretty improtant.
IMHIO, if you're NOT in a booth, with a fitter, a lie board, a selection of heads and shafts and, maybe a Trackman/Flightscope. You're not being custom fit.

Seems I was a bit late to this but I was going to say to e-mail them and ask for their best price, they will often give a discount on the online price. Still you'll know for next time...

There's a difference between buying a club/s that is/are 'your spec' and one/those that is/are 'custom fit'.
Think bespoke suit versus selecting your size jacket and your size trousers from a catalogue.
In the case of irons, there is also the knowledge (hopefully) that they are properly matched, something that rarely happens even when 'specially built' by OEMs.
