in what way? how much do you pay for an unloader? I pay £40 for a VB9 inc VAt + postage, £43 for an st280 inc VAt + postage and can get st261 for 35 including VAt and delivery

A common part for instance ...http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/INTERPUMP-WS201-HIGH-PRESSURE-WASHER-PUMP-GEARBOX-/260599025706?pt=UK_Home_Garden_PowerTools_SM&hash=item3cace9902a . How much are you paying for these? Kenny were are you getting your parts from.? Bearing in mind that there are ebay/paypal fees to come out of the profit..so where are they buying them?

Dont know mate, never had to buy one to be honest, every component is replaceble so always been able to repair them.
What else do you think your paying over the odds for chris?

How much are you paying for unloaders and seal kits? if tyou buy them regular then they should be around £30 for seals, 40 for unloaders, alot of the traders go via loyalty etc...
