Already found that, using it as my base price

Automic: £316 including vat...
Thorney: £755 (I would hope that includes vat!!!)

So can anyone enlighten me as to what Thorney do to justify charging £439 more than the list price for these?

And £316 is not a discounted price, that includes overheads and profit for anyone selling the product.

Don't want to say anything out of line here, but this is the second case in a week I've seen where Thorney are charging almost double what other suppliers are. Business is business but there's making a profit and then there's buggering your customers just because they don't know where else to buy it from.

Don't know. Maybe that includes harnesses or something. Ring John and ask.

Sadly not. It even says below, fitting is 2 hours at £65+vat per hour!

And harnesses are listed seperate so one would assume these are also extra

Oh well, they obviously manage to sell them!
