Wickes Versaille Taps

Options
Last weekend i was in local Wickes and saw their Versaille taps which were only available to order.
The set of bath taps, with shower head, and monobloc mixer sink tap were available on line for £184.00 (Code 212 425)

Today when i go to order the same set is £225.00! (+£41 or +22%)

I've tried searching for other suppliers via google but Wickes seem to be the only supplier - anyone any ideas where else i could try?

    'Versailles' may be the marketing name that Wickes give them. Other suppliers may know them as something different.

    They may also be a tap that is exclusive to Wickes. Most retailers will commission designs for sale through their own stores.
    Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.

    I fitted a Wickes bathroom earlier this year and the taps were badged as their own but supplied by Bristan. It might be worth a look through Bristans product range.

    The obvious answer is for you to like some other design which is more in keeping with what you are prepared to pay. Don't encourage them by accepting their price increase.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.
