    Think it must be a new range, I've only been buying it the last 2 months! Some of thier Saxons are cheap as chips.

    Cormar make me laugh, they are in every shop you go in to then they say you are too close to another shop.

    Have you looked into buying groups. It can open a lot of doors for accounts and the discounts you get easily cover the annual fee. Smg are the one that we are in.

    Greendale I think is one I've seen before. I know in principle you get from them and with their buying power they get it cheaper so you get a good price but how similar is it to having a direct account. Id like to know. I have direct but who knows if I'm getting the best price.

    Usually with Smg having a direct account aswell you get some special Smg prices that I don't think you would get other wise.

    It turns out today that the Cormar rep won't supply me because the local flooring warehouse thats close to me threatened to pull their stock if he supplied me .
    Now I served my time with the local warehouse owners dad ( who was a great bloke ) by the way !! and he used to be an apprentice at the same company, its funny how some folk forget who they are , I remember when he used to come round my house when he was a young'n and I'd fit car stereos and speakers for him for nowt .:mad:

    Sounds a little bit of a two faced back stabber.

    I wouldn't be worried about not having Comar on board It'll save you sending all the faulty carpets back
