  • It's down to whether a fix with out you at ease or not.

    No one knows what will happen in the wider world so if you are of a nervous disposition and would relax and have less anxiety fixing then paying a little more than the current price cap give syou this.

    I would suggest that if you wish to fix at prices presently available, you don't wait too long.
