Wouldn't be a bad thing if plaster did cost £ 30 bag, we dont pay for it, it's in the price... they seem to know plaster is cheap, but dont know how far it goes, so 4 bag room, tell them it take 6, 60£ on top of price already...not do bad..

I think it's to do with who you are aswell and what sort of relationship you have with the merchants,there guna look after a firm who spends £1000s a month than some 1 man band.cant see getting a bag and bq or wickes for a few months
 
I type Birmingham, Liverpool, Wee Jimmy land. Stock always changes. I've got this theory. So I'll share. I've found out with charm when the deliveries come. I sat and watched 4 lorries at B&Q but so far not one delivery of plaster in over 2 months, however. Wickes are delivering alternative weeks I think. Maybe. Find the time. Stake it out. Wickes definitely taking delivery of plaster. Seen two pallets marked Newport on lorry going to Wickes. I was so close I could smell it. I was having evil thoughts

Wickes seems more on the ball than b@q
 
Travis are all pre orders for a while now. I was told that Stamford Travis has 9 pallets already sold and allocated to customers. They haven’t even got the stock yet but it’s all pre sold.

I can’t see stocks back to normal for a good while. People will be buying up 2-3 months worth of gear at a time to see them through any further shortages.
