[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The point is that people are being up charged for Delta and similar HGTV type stuff. They should not be. Telling people to take meds never won an argument. [/quote] Again, I don't think you know how this works. A designer or contractor buying a Delta (or Toto or whatever) toilet is getting a wholesale or trade discount, then they are upcharging to get the price closer to, or often under, retail. You are almost always paying LESS for these things through a designer than through retail, or at least you're breaking even. But I would also say that a designer is most appropriate when purchasing things that are not available to the general public. [/quote] That’s not the case here. The “designers” take people to Ferguson and then upcharge. The same product is available on build.com which is Ferguson for even less, and even less on Amazon.[/quote]
