Lee,
When I purchase PVC pipe and fittings from Lowes or Home Depot, I don really care about brand. I am there for schedule 40 pipe and fittings in PVC at the lowest price. PVC pipe and fittings are standardized so there is little reason to worry about brand.
Then there are the specialized plumbing parts such as the Spindrifters and TPRs. For the Spindrifters I got them from Trevor at a better price than the $250 you commonly see at US retailers. And Trevor was the only place I could find purpose-built TPRs.
The Savio and Sequence Primers came from Webbs on line. As I remember the skimmer was around $275 and each of the 1/3HP pumps was just under $400 with shipping.
Again, most of my pond purchases are based on research first on brand/model to see which is the best choice for technical reasons. The next criteria is price. Support is rarely a driver as I do my own pond construction and maintenance.
Please remember that prices change frequently. So if you are looking for something specific, do an extensive internet search. You may find a bargain!
