Find a brand or 2 you can work with, that's reliable and installs easily, then stick with it.

I'm not one for buying the joblots off ebay. Maybe it's just me, but i always think 9/10times it'll be stolen from someones van.

And i wouldn't want to purchased nicked good...stealing a mans tools is the lowest of low and has more of an effect than the dumb thiefs realise - and i wouldn't want to give money to these scumbags.

China! Plus to get wholesale prices you'd have to buy thousands!

white range ced/lap from screwfix/toolstation is not that bad, fitted hundreds of them never had a problem.
cheap cable is not easy to work with, better go with prysmian one.

That's what I was thinking really only 1st fix stuff I will aways keep my 2nd fix to better quality. Just like 1000m of cable same with boxes just a idea really. Maybe a waste of time
