...or just research rates.
I'm wondering how to do this as directly as possible in UK or in Europe. Google TV Adwords looks great but only allows US businesses.
If booking airtime online is too much to expect, are there any listings of airtime prices around? I know the normal route is to use media buyers but their charges more than make up for the discounts they can get.

You get kick back too.
It's a dream scenario for the channel going direct cause you don't have experience. An agency would even get prices for you if you propose a budget and name. We get emails about last minute spaces all the time as an agency.

dosn't really really matter last minute or pre booked. The prices you see are not real are they.

So there's no open market this side of the pond? I'm not averse to media buyers entirely as they do all those fancy graphs - If they can get me kickbacks as well then I might even learn to love them.
