    Why pay over market? Because I don't begrudge a company a profit, I
    like to make one, and so do they. They are a retailer, so they bought
    the stuff they sell, unlike H&S who refine and then make their stock
    items.... 

    Some things I buy from H&S (platinum and palladium products come to
    mind), and some I shop around for, it really depends on what I need
    and how quick. Note I rarely buy from Australian suppliers (I'm in
    Australia) as their prices are usually 2.5X US prices even with
    exchange rates and postage factored in; I'm not made of money after
    all! Even if they can get the stuff to me within two days, and
    getting stuff from the US usually takes 5-8days (unless I FedEx it). 

Thomas.
