Sorry to hijack Rich....

Up to you mate - you'll struggle to find them cheaper as they're a patented design from the US and the price is pretty fixed worldwide
I personally feel they work effectively, but it's up to you 
Will need to know by tomorrow AM for deffo now.
Cheers,
Rich

Not trying to piss you off! It actually works out at £46.90 delivered. But it does say that prices are going up to £42.95 + £9.95 postage soon.

Well that's great to know that Dodo HQ are happy to undercut their stockists - requesting that I sell at RRP!!) I'm sticking to the RRP as the margin on these is tiny as it is thanks

Just to update you all (inc. Ben J) on this as I have spoken to Dom @ Dodo today...
Buckets are no longer available through resellers due to the high frequency of breakages in transit (ie. caused by couriers) These will be the last sets I can supply.
From now on to purchase buckets, it has to be direct from Dodo HQ @ a cost of £52.90 delivered for the entire set as they go to special lengths to protect them in transit and to check you are aware that they may be damaged in transit

with all due respect mate and i am not having a go but should a bucket not be extremely durable? i throw my bucket around the garden and it never ever breaks...

Its because its clear plastic, its weaker than opaque plastic and Dodo have had issues with these buckets breaking. I'm sure that if you are careful with them they will be fine, and them being clear plastic is pretty unique and cool!

Indeed.
And BarnshaW - point taken mate - but I was only supplying them not making them and making the prices etc etc
