Hi Jez:

Reminded me of this-

Shop around before you buy, and look for value. If you buy what is the least
expensive, you may keep your initial costs down but end up paying more in
the long run. This reminds me of the astronaut's reply when asked what he
was thinking just before blast-off: "It suddenly occurred to me that I was
sitting on top of several thousand parts which were all bought by tender at
the lowest price."
