Went to buy 5 trims for work tomorrow, local Topps didn't do a trade (Quid) 12mm trim so had to buy Homelux branded trim! 23 QUID!!!!!! Drove to next town and brought Genesis trim for 95p each. Yes I know i probably know I spent more time and petrol money doing it but princible at stake!
Retail Homelux trim at Topps is now over £7!

Over here the trims by "Schlueter" are the most common trims.
Second most common trims come from the company "Blanke" http://www.blanke-co.com/index.php?id=375
or from the company "Repac" http://www.repac.de/profishops.html?profishop=v_05
but last one has an english catalogue only, no english webpage.

i live a bit out in the sticks and the nearest place that sells trade tims for a reasonable price is 45 miles away AAAARRGGHH so i often have to make do with whatever i can get my hands on.. its sounds crazy i know but all the tile shops and builders merchants and DIY stores round my way don't sell the contract trims but will offer a branded one at a trade discount, still 3 times the price though. i often ask folk to get their own trims (if they want them) when they are buying or choosing their tiles.
can they be baught online?
