Title: Vet matched VetUK price on Fortekor
Post by: Mark on January 14, 2008, 11:49:32 AM

I asked about a prescription today and the new vet said he is happy to do one but will match their price as long as it is more than he pays for it. I said I wasn't sure so he let me look it up on his computer  ;D - I assume VetUK prices are net? - it was £21.58 + VAT so he said I could have them for £25 (old vet charged me £48  :Crazy: )
He has made a note on the screen to keep the price for repeats. He is very open and said they cost him £21 so he would rather make £4 than nothing  :evillaugh:

I'm sure they all pay the same for them. Anyway, my vet offered rather than write a prescription which is better for everyone  ;D

I thought their med prices were + VAT. I don't mind though considering I saved £23 compared to the money-grabbing old vet  :evillaugh:
