You would expect price variations alright. I do realize that certain [not all] items in karting have tiny margins and that coupled with some 'very strong encouragement' has led to what would appear to the casual observer to be price fixing. For example, why is a set of Vega SL6 slicks GBP106.88 at Kartparts, Spellfame and Dartford Karting ? Strange isn't it ? I wonder how much of this these traders get, how much Paul Deavin gets and how much is repatriated to Vega themselves.

I do feel for the retailers. You only need to take a snoop at some of their accounts at Companies House to see how tight their margins must be... and how difficult a plight they have.
