Does anyone know how the prices are at Fergusons compared to say HD or lowes? I'm talking about regular plumbing items and faucet fixtures?
I've never been there...but a buddy suggested going over there for quality stuff.
thanks

If that is the same company we have here somewhere around 140% msrp whereas Lowes and HD are discounted below msrp in most cases.

Go there and decide for yourself.

Ferguson sells wholesale to plumbers. If you walk in the door as a retail customer, they'll quote you manufacturer's full list price. You'll do better at HD or Lowes.
Ferguson has always been quite a bit more expensive on comparable items than the home improvement stores. Plus, they're only open during the week during work hours. The only time I buy from them is if it's something I can't find anywhere else, and I don't want to order. Then I have to get time off from work and drive across town during a workday. On the plus side, the staff are very knowledgable and courteous, which I cannot say about other places. I'm sure business account holders get a significant discount, too.

They sure do..beats the prices at HD Fortunately, I know "somebody" who works there and he gets me the discount and its what I want, not just what the Big Box places stock
