i have been working down in kent for the last week doing a porcelain floor it is well out of my normal catchment area ,my local tile supplier delivered my adhesive down there for me but as usual i ran out and went around some of the local tile shops to buy some white spf rapid , stay with me i will cut to the chase , after going into several tile shops all trying to sell me adhesive at retail prices i told them i was paying 20% less for granfix than what they were buying it in for, granfix isnt even my regular brand, i was called a liar and a con man by the granfix rep when one of the tile shops called him to ask about it ,one bloke who had been trading for 30 years told me that no one could tell him any thing about tilng as he had been in the game for 30 years well if you live in kent and are happy being ripped off i buy granfix spf rapid for £10 per bag plus vat and i have receipts to prove it i feel much better now i have that off my chest
 
It's simple mate, there jealous because you get a better deal than they do! Don't worry about it, you know what you get, they can carry on getting ripped off, who's the winner in the end, you are mate.
 
Some suppliers I use either do trade or retail prices, It,s one or the other so much easier and a lot less complicated
