hi gang!
anyone had any experience from this supplier?
several flags to choose from and really good prices it seems, just wondered about sandstone quality.
(North Yorkshire is a bit too far for me to visit 
)
their websites are:
www.pricespaving.co.uk (main)
www.pricelesspaving.co.uk (end of lines)
www.ebay.co.uk trading as "pricelesspaving"
Many Thanks
Paul

bizarrely the only person in the uk with your registered email address lives in harrogate and/or used to live/still lives in essex?
and even more bizarrely the company you mention has its head office in harrogate?
If I was suspicious man I would think that someone is doing a bit of marketing

You may be being too harsh here, lads. The email address of the OP links to a fancy Italian footwear site which is 'currently being upgraded' and has been in that state of suspended animation since 2006!
Paul: Prices are a budget supplier. Caveat Emptor, as your ancestors proably said, and remember, you get what you pay for.

Cheers Tony.
i have private messaged the moderators to explain they've got their investigation wrong this time . But that's ok ...i understand.
Thanks for the heads up re Prices. I am on a budget so they still might be a last resort.
I'm in Essex and so far I visited EH Smith (Global Stone from £22sqm), The Landscape Centre Colchester (from £20.50) ...then came across Prices where sandstones start from £12sqm !!
Quite a difference for 35sqm of patio, but as you said... you get what you pay for.
Btw, do you guys have any recommendation for this part of the world?
Many thanks (and GREAT site!)
Ciao
Paul

global stone is a reputable supplier with decent products
same for london stone paving
if choosing riven stone I would allow 5% for wastage

yeah exactly you should all be ashamed of yourselves, poor guy only asked advise of the best supplier and got a verbal kicking

do you not think it odd that a guy from essex mentioned the same company 4 times in his opeing post and that company is in north yorkshire? :;):
the OP has an unusual name and it seems his alter ego lives in the same town that prices paving operates from
but all sorted now
let us know how you get on paulo
cheers LLL

Suspicions aside, 12 is too cheap. They will be a mismatch of sizes which will not work in a random pattern, will have massive riven pieces on the surface, will be different colours, and thicknesses.
