Yorkex 28mm pipe (10 x 3m lengths): £233 (Includes VAT + £20 delivery)

What is Yorkex pipe like - is it thinner grade?

If the price includes vat it works out same as what I've been quoted from Plumb Centre, they supply Yorkex

Plumbfix £96.90 inc vat of 5 lengths atm.

Doesn't include delivery - another £20 or so. I was just thinking that if it worked out significantly cheaper, buy it in bulk and use the amount we need to have a new gas pipe run and sell the rest. Seems like I might try Plumbfix/Center instead and just buy as much as is required or ask the person installing it if they can get it at the same price!

I think with the price copper is the main suppliers are in a war to supply us with reasonable pricing .... End of the day the custard is none the wiser TBH .... they pay for it!

28mm pipe is not something i use very often. Only really for the odd indirect cylinder change

ask your local scrap man how much he sells it for.

Is this likely to be used pipes with the end fittings cut off?

 

[Roger Welton]

Nope, new pipe weighed in by, less than honest types

Looked at a receipt recently for a purchase of 28mm Yorkex. £68 plus VAT for 10 lengths 10 years ago.

heavens 15mm must have been like £15 for a bundle?

 

[Mike Jackson]

I was paying 59p a meter for 15mm less than ten years ago.

Is that the 'hovis' music playing in the background

Cheapest i can remember paying is 34p/m for 15mm and 64p for 22mm in the early 90's but i was buying it 600m min order but usually 1200m at a time.
Copper prices have dropped by about 15% in the last week or so. Shop around for the deals and stock up and and keep your scrap.
