Prices and pricing policy.
Pricing policy:
The first principle of our pricing policy is that we strive to keep our prices as low as possible commensurate with delivering excellence.
The second principle is dictated by transparency: nobody ever pays anything other than our published prices so you never have to wonder whether anybody else is paying a 'special' price, they are not.
