Where does this resin originate from?

We should find out who makes it and get it direct. If it's made in China (like most stuff) we could get it seriously cheap.

I always imagine these sort of price scares are made to increase prices.

If water from the RO is pure enough you don't need to use resin.

Mine comes out at 004 so I am fortunate and don't bother with resin.
