Default best place for feeler gauges?

Hi all, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. I'm after a set of bent tip feelers that have 0.007,8,9,10,11 and 12.

The only ones I've found (1 I might add) with those sizes are straight. Tried amazon and ebay. Any help would be great as I'm sure loads of you have these feelers.

I know they are straight but they are easily bent if you see what I mean

Honestly a bog standard set out of halfords will do, I've been using them for years IIRC around £5-6
