Would like to get a poll running on this but need all the options first.

So could you all list the main three companies you use, online and / or offline. Doesn't really matter.

If you want to, give a short reason why.

I'll then collate the results in a week or so and create a poll so we can get voting for the most used electrical suppliers by our forum members.

Cheers

screwfix 50% like the online catalouge and how it states stock amounts at all local stores. really like the tradeUK online account, makes life easier.

Denmans 40% generally ok but have let me down on getting kit in after i've ordered it and needed it! too many times its happened really

other online stores 10% when i need something a bit obscure

Toolstation 55%
Electricfix 40%
Mix of others 5%

I'm suprised Toolstation hasn't been mentioned. Probably better for me as I am small scale and make use of the free delivery on £10 or over on a regular basis! I dont expect I buy enough to get trade discounts at CEF, Yess, Edmunsons etc..

40% toolstation
30% electrafix
20% cpc
10% tlc, cef, local.

As live rural have to rely mostly on delivered stuff.As above use toolstation as free over 10 pound. Cpc which has a lot of good deals on certain items and is free delivery on any order ordered online.

CEF, very good in Bridgwater as well.

As I'm not an electrician, I only usually buy the parts for installation and then I outsource the electrical side of my work to a professional, but I ordinarily use Screwfix/electricfix when I'm offline and then online, I've recently been using a site I was recommended called Quickbit. They have been pretty darn good recently, especially where price is concerned any way.
