I have never bought any, the software I got when I was at uni and my gf's best mate bought me a loud of pro pens, pencils, pads and manga backgrounds/kits for my birthday last year

That must've been good :D
 
You can buy them anywhere really, depending on what you wanted.
For basics any where from Tesco to general art stores.
I buy my Copics and Prismas online.
 
i tend to get my equipment for drawing whereever i can. WHSmiths is usually a good place for it, though i think we have a shop in the City near here that has a lot of drawing equipment but i haven't looked there often
 
For good dip pens and ink (deleter brand) I buy from dinky box: http://www.dinkybox.co.uk/

Letraset markers and fineliners I buy direct from them: http://www.letraset.co.uk/

Staedtler fineliners in 0.1 and 0.05 I buy in boxes of 10 from Euroffice: http://www.euroffice.co.uk/

I buy both fineliners and copics from Cultpens: http://www.cultpens.com/

Watercolours, Bristol board, and other specialist drawing surfaces I buy from Artdiscount: http://www.artdiscount.co.uk/

Though I do most of my manga and drawings etc. on Tesco finest printer paper, 120gsm in A4, in a pack of 250 sheets for a few quid.
 
Some interesting websites there Sonia, i think i will definitely be using a few of them, i've always had trouble finding good fineliners.

I buy most of my materials from my local art shop. Pencil wise i almost always use my lucky hello kitty mechanical so i just get replacements for that a my local newsagent
