oh and one other thing i have happily pm'd volly who was excellent and fast with his response, but still works out a bit cheaper and easier to buy from them. ( i would prefer a more personal built viv) but this is just easier.

i have in the past purchased vivs from personal builders but at that point i had access to a transit!

and looking at the pics volly has i must say they look great.

You must admit most don't supply any of these requirements???

they arent requirements, if someone offered me a viv for cheaper then a shop that they BUILT on there own and it was good quality i would take it, i think pretty much all your questions asked were invalid.

The only reason i dont goto viv builders is because of delivery, trust and communication. (Which most have very good standards on the trust/communication front.)

The odd few like recs let everyone down. And to ask if someone pays tax on products they sell what the fluff does that have to do with buying a viv? i personally dont give a toss if i can get a good quality item as cheap as i can.

well i ordered an ex48 from them and used the £5 discount, much to my disappointment they didnt have it in stock, so took the upgrade to the ex55 instead! so a 55"x23"x 27" for my bredli including free del all for £109! think thats a good deal!

i've just had mine delivered after ordering yesterday 13th ... surprised to see its a Pennine Well chuffed with it and i will definately buy more when the dollar allows
i'll just add abit of info there are 4 1/2" vents (2 pairs either end of the viv and positioned at low and high levels)
there are two (2" by 2" and 10" length) positions for heating and lighting in the top of the viv (these can be clearly seen on the Argos online site)
i've only had to drill a couple of low holes for heat mat cable (heatmat will be used a night) and stat cable.
the positions for above heating and lighting (H/L) do accomodate my clamps but i have the option of drilling small holes for the H/L cables or i can go the hole cutter route and fix the H/L directly in place

Looks like the demand has sent the price back to old prices http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/st...&Submit=GO+%3E

Size (W)119, (D)48, (H)46cm. £99.99
Size (W)92, (D)45, (H)51cm. £79.99
Size (W)61, (D)44.5, (H)44.5cm. £54.99

... but u can still use a cashback site (like quidco at 1.5% to 3%) to claw back abit of dollar if u still order
