My latest junkmail from screwfix has a link to a load of stuff on ebuyer. Has the latter hacked the former or have they got into bed together? (In which case, which of them is f*cked? :-))

Did you hear that Dire Straights and Chris Rea are merging? Going to to call the band Chris Straights.
Screwfix, along with B&Q, belong to Kingfisher PLC. So the next question is have Kingfisher now taken on eBuyer? There is certainly no mention of it on their website.

Ebuyer are a relative to Howden`s, the kitchen/joinery outlet, at one point Ebuyer was trying to sell me its range of related rigid carcass kitchen units , so guess joining with Screwfix is logical, ish.....

ISTR in recent months unspecifed "problems with our kitchen supplier so no can-do" notices on our local Screwfux counter... could Ebuyer have nearly gone bust and been offloaded by howdens to Kingfisher for knack all naturally?

I think they had a poor image at one time which would have made your title somewhat descriptive. Apparently they improved?
