Price Find: Rubi TS 50 Manual Tile Cutter

[Dan]

Just thought it woud be good to try and find the cheapest priced tools around by naming a certain tool and using all of our contacts to find the cheapest supplier.

Starting with the Rubi TS 50, how much would you pay for this tool from your supplier?

 

[always problems]

bought mine for £144 about a year ago on e-bay/tiling shop

 

[L & R CERAMICS]

[mark l]

ts 50 is 119 +vat ts 60 is 142 + vat

 

[L & R CERAMICS]

so would that be about 160 ,thats not bad is it

The ts50 is useless...even the Plus version is a dinosaur these days.

The ts50 is useless...even the Plus version is a dinosaur these days.

To post a picture you need to host your pic somewhere on the web, try photobucket for instance. Once you upload it to photobucket you get a list of 3 links below the pic you need the URL one. Simply copy the link text and in your message here click the add picture icon. Once the box comes up asking for the link properties simply paste in the link you copied from photobucket. That should see you right.

Or send me the images and I can upload them to here for you, PM me for me email address. I'll then send you back the URL's for them which you need. I may activate uploading though one day.

Just had a weeks holiday in Spain While there just out of curiosty I popped into a DIY store because I am just in the process of getting my tiling tools together. Well the prices were so good I could not resist and bought a Rubi TS 50 for 144 euros a Rubi ND 125 wet cuttter for 84 euros thats a saving of over 30% on prices in this country. I won't tell you some of the prices of their floor tiles I don't like to see grown men cry but as usual we are being ripped off in the UK.

 

[L & R CERAMICS]

while you were there did you get a price per meter for fitting ,no well im sure youll be surprised if i say roughly £4.50 per meter, in some areas even lower,if you want to go back ive got a couple of numbers for some main contractors from the uk that have offices in madrid ,barcelona and fuengirola if you want to go back for £50 sheets a day!!!!

Send some of them 4 dayers over there to get some work experience, as they are happy to work for that price over here and rip the arse out of people with the shoddy work.....
