Our product is also Quality and very competitive, Would be horrified to find that the FD was adding to our prices, one of the benefits of getting the order is that the customer would use u again (not via the FD) they would be a little surprised to be paying 2 diff prices, could drop someone in to the proverbial, Much prefer to give the discount, works for us anyway.

One of the FD's did tell me (one from the Co-op) that a florist was caught giving 2 diff prices, one higher for the FD work and was subsequently dropped and not used again... we do deal with a couple of Co-op Fd's and 2 independants (a lot of Fd's in Swansea) so we would not want to risk losing any of them.
