    New wall hung basin

    They can be when they sense fresh meat. It is because they usually have a three tier pricing structure. Over the counter, cash trade, and account trade. As a plumber i can walk into a merchant when not local to home and they sometimes try it on. Boy does that get me cross! Key is to build...
