Cheap Bathroom Suite

I am looking for a relatively inexpensive basic bathroom suite with a steel bath. As it's for a flat that I may rent out I want something that is reasonably robust. Does anyone have experience of the Galaxy suites that are sold on ebay? Also would c£400 be about a reasonable price for removing old suite and fitting new suite (Perth)?

    I buy a lot from my local independent plumbers merchants. A suite with steel bath is £230.00. That includes loos, basin / pedestal, seat, taps and side panel. £400 is about right for a straight replacement. Normally, the plumber would supply flexis, multikwiks etc

    B&q do a trade suite, with a steel bath, not sure of the price. But it's just a plain, you could say bog standard suite so imho looks great. There are lots of ebay shops with good feedback who sell really cheaply compared to big stores.

    We've just bought a new bathroom suite. After a lot of searching I got the steel bath from a local independant bathroom supplier for £99, I knew exactly which make I wanted and rung around till I found what we needed. I bought the sink and loo separatly. Total cost £300.
