FYI
Local Sheret didn't have them or check valves in stock, so I went to Corix by the Mary hill bypass

1" threaded spears gate valve was almost $30

Wondering how you guys got them for $20...

The check valve was under $20 though...

Anyways they have them, so I bought them lol

Thanks for pointing them out.

I paid just over $21 for my 1" threaded gate valves at that same Corix on Thursday, cash sale, not a account, but they looked through some accounts to find me a good deal on them. I did buy 4 of them and came to around $95 total after tax.

Yup they're expensive but won't seize or get stuck on you like the other valves at Rona or hd, worth the extra $10 if you ask me....

yeah, I went with these for their quality, after researching on the forum, but curious how people are getting cheaper prices than I paid

All I can say in my experience not at corix but in general cash sales sometimes boil down to who helps you, how busy they are, how much they help you and so on. It "pays" to chat up the sales guy with what you're doing and sometimes you just luck out and he finds it interesting =)

Also, there are a couple of grades to some PVC stuff as well. Some things are CSA approved, some aren't, the ones that are cost more.

I went to Corix this morning and bought a few unions and a gate valve for just under $20 with the schedule 40 unions were around $2.25 each.

Was just going through all my paper work from Corix, I bought 1 1/2" unions from Richmond Corix for $11.84 and from Coquitlam Corix at $8.42. All depends how they run you through the system ie If they run you as "Industrial/End Use" you pay more then if they run you in their system as "Landscape/Nursery"

Other option to for buying fittings is FABCO in Surrey. I was looking for some 1 1/2" wye at corix and they phoned them for me to see if they stocked them and confirmed for me they do public sales. A quick search shows they carry a lot of the fittings that make life easier when doing plumbing but prices overall are just slightly higher then Corix
