    Choosing a supplier isn't just pure price, IMHO. Long term best value as a combination of price and after sales service should be the priority. These days, prices from competetive companies are very similar and it is customer service over the course of time that adds value.

    Have a look at a few comparison sites and see what they come up with. Then, check your favourite companies yourself using their price lists and choose the one you think you will be happiest with. Not an easy answer but then there aren't many of those.
