Price Gouging

A friend who is in a poor telehone signal area asked me to source a couple of items for him - he needs a water supply rather urgently.

Caravan Dealer No. 1
Whale water pump £62.00
Whale direct water supply connection £71.00

Caravan Dealer No 2
Whale direct water supply connection £88.00
Extension hose 7.5 metres for above - wait for it .............................£44.00

No wonder people buy after market products or knock-offs.
 
Sounds like a purchase from two dealers to et the best deal. Never assume because one seller is cheaper on one thing that they will be cheaper on something else. It does account for the theft of some items though.

Our Whale pump was nicked when at the dealer and cost to replace was £54 from a caravan dealership. From FL Hitchman direct copy of invoice;
Aquaroll Mains Adaptor Extension Hose£15.00£15.00

https://www.aquaroll.com/aquaroll-mains-adaptor-extension-hose.html now £18.50.
 
The £44 for the extension hose will be the boxed kit that also contains the float valve for the side entry of the Aquaroll.

We always look around for anything for the caravan and see what the best price we can get the goods for 🙂

Not in this case Woodentop, my friend already has the float and hose device, I did not ask for a price on that.

I did however double check with the sales assistant that the extension hose was for the direct water connection device, she replied in the affirmative.

Seems very expensive £44 extension hose
 
Was on a CCC site and asked the warden where the nearest camping shop was as our pump also went u/s. They told me and said would I mind giving the shop leaflets of our site , of course I said . Got to shop and told them we wanted new pump, same time gave them the leaflets. Going to pay and she said no charge as the leaflets would give more custom . Thank you very much. At time the pumps were £54.
