Anybody bought GTEC Aqua boards recently??

What price did you pay?

I picked up 4 boards from jacksons thinking I was doing the right thing by fitting them in a shower area. In hindsight I shouldn't have bothered and will learn from my mistake, honest. Jacksons building supplies sent me an invoice for £217 - £54 per board.
I'm a little gutted to say the least! After much haggling I've managed to get it down to £45 per board. That's still gonna cost me £180 out of my profit.

I thought they'd be no more than half that but I now understand I'm some way out!

I pay about £14 for a 1.2m x 0.9m concrete board. It's about 12mm thick.

Take it you don't have terms set up there then

Ive been on the go for ten years but never had terms - I've always been happy with price until now.
These aren't concrete, gypsum. Supposed to be very good. Even so, i think I should be paying around a tenner less.

If you go there regularly I'd ask them to be more reaonable or you'll go else where and make sure they set you up decent terms NOW

I see similar in b&q which makes it more frustrating but according to jacksons the ones I've got are better....
