I am afraid I have never spent £100 on beekeeping in one go - and don't intend to start now.

Worked perfectly fine minutes ago. The rush must be over.
At least I won't run out of brood frames this year.

Maybe they just ran out of the ones you wanted - looking through now there are a few things I've bought that aren't there anymore (eg. plastic BS castellations)...

Put my order in no problem got a few things i didn't realise were on the sale, framed QX's for £12.00 is good value - last year they were selling them for a tenner but only in Harper Adams and not many of them then, so it's worth the extra two quid to get them

why do these suppliers not have foundation on sale and were is cheapest for foundation?

 

[VEG]

foundation sells well enough not to put it on sale.

You want cheap or good you dont get it both

China, via Alibaba.

Foundation is something everyone needs so it is a captive market - bits and pieces you could buy from anywhere is where the profit really is...

They give up to 40% discount but it's a case of who you know.

 

[VEG]

tom who do you know? lol

 

[Itchy]

I know he doesn't need foundation.....

 

[Tom Bick]

Don't need it any more as I have seen the light but through a good friend I could get a discount

One reason is it's very brittle in the winter - I bought some to top up my order last year and they sent it separately in March! I've found CWJ very reasonable on foundation prices
