Hi, Im going to topps tomorrow to pick up some supplies and hopefully i can use my trade account for the first time and ive heard the discount is good.

Im just open to offers at this moment and ive heard about CTD, does this company to trade accounts for materials and if so what are the prices like .

If there any other people that use other shops or prefer topps or CTD let me know what you think so i can get a good idea

CTD's brochure looks really good quality

Topps and CTD in my area ( Surrey) are probably on par as prices are concerned. Use them, it is a good price, but when passing other tile shops, pop in, have a chat, as I've done that over the years, and now I can get Mapai white flexi rapid at £14 for a 20kg bag!

CTD as with Topps have a very good reputation....a worthy opponent you may say....Topps will price match the same goods and beat it by 5% against a genuine quote.As a tiler you will be,you will choose to buy something from one and another from the other...this depends on your style and custom base...I will help where and when I can....Gaz

Thanks for that Gaz. Since they've stopped the display board with our cards at my Topps, it seems to be filled with Polish and Hungarian builders! Funny that, their all Polish running the shop. Have not had a job from there in 6 months any way.
