just that they don't appear to be overly inflated


There are examples of where their RRP's are more comparable to other suppliers and there are examples where their RRP's are far higher than other suppliers of similar products (similar as in number of shots, bore etc)

I guess some people will compare rrps between suppliers and some wont :)

David put well what I meant.

Some people wont care either way. I personally look at the product and its price regardless of RRP as no1 seems to go by them any more, and then if they are of good value I`ll buy them.

Even when comparing shots and bore, it's worth bearing in mind performance too. It's natural that if a product is 1.3G it's price might be higher, but it's performance better, than a cake of comparable bore/shot count etc.

An example- Epic 19 shot hexagons, they are at £25 RRP

Other 19 shot hexagons vary from about £15, to around £20, some are £25 too- but of a 1.4G prformance.

I'm not just mindlessly defending Epic here- if anyone can suggest items that are as good as Epics , at significantly lower RRP's (or actual selling price, however people want to compare), then I'm all ears.

Epic have some great products, no doubt.

There are also products out there that are at least as good and have a much lower RRP.

I dont want this to get into a thread quoting prices back and forth, I have my opinion and you have yours :)
