I want a replacement mesh for a 28-30" net, rather than buy a new complete landing net,the only ones I've seen are on eBay and look rubbish,any clues???

It's nigh on impossible to get replacement mesh for the vast majority of landing nets. The exceptions largely revolve around the 42" arm and spreader type carp nets. I can't say that it fills me with joy, but the reality is that I find that, by the time a mesh needs replacing on a framed net, the frame will be on the way out and the net will be long discontinued.

Well,I've got two korum spoon frames still good,a super specialist frame also good(I've put a net from a broken frame onto it,so it's still ok. I must have seven nets,varying sizes and states of repair...

I wasn't doubting that, but it makes no odds. You're unlikely to get a replacement mesh for that kind of net off the shelf. The only real answer is bodging, or getting something specially made. One is cost effective, but often not pretty (not that it matters), the other is prohibitively expensive.
