I've dealt with Hattons and Ontracks. I also deal a fair bit with Rails of Sheffield. There's not much between them I'd say. Ontracks keep the VAT and charge GBP2.00 freight unless there's a large discrepancy. Hattons prices can vary quite a bit and they can stuff heaps of catalogues in the parcel (weight!). Rails run out of stock quickly. I lean most times to Rails as their prices are consistently lower but I am happy to deal with all three.

What part of Kiwiland are you from Cone?
