I bought 1 from build base in wigan a few months ago at that exact price and they ordered it in for me as it’s not some thing they stock. So if you need 32 you’d think they would give you a better price. My local UGS sold the exact same crates for around 40 quid +vat, so 23.50 sounds right. Incidentally my local UGS was taken over by Keyline last week, any one know if all branches of UGS have been taken over by Keyline?

tried cookie's plastic express but they couldnt match it
they did however come in at a great price on the thermoplastic linear drains £6 +vat a pop which is very good
it was ivel building supplies of biggleswade which done us the best deal on the crates
thing is the ground is pure clay so it will just be an underground pond

email him, offer to buy the 30 you need this weekend at mutually suitable price, bet you can do a deal.
