best place to buy replacement glass fibre or carbon sticks for toy kit

Hi, I ordered a kite from china which arrived badly damaged- with several broken sticks.

It would not be cost effective to send it back so I would like to try & repair it. The packaging was non existent just a plastic bag with address on. Also there was a 7cm rip in the kite, I shan't risk buying from china again.

Most replacement sticks seem to be online so you end up paying postage which makes them expensive, decathlon sell sticks but at £2.99 a metre which is also rather expensive. Any help or ideas for substitutions would be greatly received.

Many thanks Mrs Wright

You could try hobby lobby, michaels, joans, and basically any craft stores. You could also use wooden round sticks, or flat popsicle sticks as a substitution
