Online coffee beans retailer

Sometimes I wish I never changed jobs. My old office was about 10 minutes from Wogan's roastery in Bristol. Got to know the staff well enough they'd often save special beans for me if they were running low or often I'd just ask for a weight and they'd give me a random set of beans.

Since then the last 18 months I've been drinking just store bought beans and I really miss having the sweetshop experince of Wogan!

That eBay shop looks like a decent shout though so I may give them a go. Then again if I am ordering online I may as well see if Wogan's still sell the Mio's Brazilian Microlot bean
 
Picked up a bag of Lofbergs Brazil Single Origin and very impressed for the price. Anyone else tried it, how do you find it compares?
I'm by no means an expert on coffee but its one of the better ones available from a supermarket. Took me awhile to find the right grind setting for it on my DeLonghi but it makes a decent cuppa once dialled in correctly. For not much more though you can get freshly roasted direct from a roaster. You've no idea when it was roasted when buying from supermarket and usually just has a use by date.

What would you recommend for a strength 4/5 roast from elsewhere? I'm keen to explore more but don't know where to start - this thread is full of ideas but I see a lot of expensive stuff.
