Melanie, "300,000" it's a lot of room where to hide bargain
products like your 83 pence connector example.

Here is where the difference (83p-6p) goes:

83 pence is OK if you can order online one connector and receive it
the next day. (OK for prototyping or occasional repairs).

But now that you have the Channel Tunnel, isn't everything becoming
less expensive on your island? Do you still have this old British pound?
