Very true Dave, the big snag is that Supplies types don't listen or care about the on costs.
The criteria seems to be, to hell with Biomed's views, 'we have done a deal' on the consumables at 50p a set!
A very large hospital not far from here had it worked up them that way, when the better product the Graseby was not bought because the consumables were too costly.
It all boils down to lies, damned lies, etc, etc.
