went to buy a couple of angle adaptors in an ionics agent in watford. Took them up to the counter and find out that they cost £13.34 EACH. Do people really pay these sort of prices?

 ;D I found you can buy two cheaper than one from one w/c suppliers because of savings on p&p ;D

People should learn to shop around!  ;)

I just hate paying the hyped prices for all this so-called "specialist" equipment...

when he told me the price I laughed, put it on the counter and walked straight to the door. I'm just not willing to put up with these sort of price differences. Someone on this forum is something to do with Ionics, will they/he not tell us why the difference is so great. I can put up with a pound or so difference but nearly eleven pound???????

You mean a plastic angle adaptor? Those simple ones? £13?! That's insane.

 :) The "Harris pole thread is basically saying the same...

Why pay these prices £15 verses £100-400 I know where I'm going!

Shop around people, don't let them get away with it!  >:(  >:(  >:(
