Im fuming with the large orange shop :twisted:
I buy a lot of their planed smooth timber for a product that i sell a lot of , i could probably get it cheaper elsewhere but it would need machining to the finish i need and the time saved by using it straight from the pack suits me for the items i use it for .
Last year they had a masive increase in the price so i went to another supplier , a few months back i took out the B&Q Trade account card and the price fell dramatically :lol: so i started using them again , i buy a lot of this timber and the 18mmx70mmx2100mm was £7.53 inc vat per pack of 4 , this evening i went to pick half a dozen packs up for an order i have and they have put the price up to £11.94 :shock:
I know prices have to go up but stroll on thats nearly 40% (not the best at maths) i have just spent the last half hour on the phone asking the chap what reason was there for such a huge rise and he said well its probably inflation sir :shock:
So was the B&Q trade account card just a temp to get back lost trade customers before a huge price rise , guess im off back to my local timber yard in the morning ..
Rant over , wow i feel better for getting that off my chest ,, aaaannndd relax
