    Is there any difference (poorer quality) than say Seven Seas. Bought tescos multivitamins yesterday, €4 cheaper than SS but has the exact same ingredients and %RDA values as SS.

    If they have the same ingredients and %RDA then I can't see any reason they'd be any better or worse. Of course I'm open to correction. I use the ones from lidls myself.

    I've bought Tesco Fish oil, which was much cheaper than big name brands but seemed to me to be exactly similar in quality (oddly, it was cheaper to buy three packs of 30 capsules than one of 90). I'd imagine the same is true of the vitamins.

    You are just paying over the odds for the product due to marketing. Some marketed products are considered worse than the cheaper generics, e.g. ipods, budweiser.

    I got generic solpadeines recently, about €1 less and they fizzed up way better and tasted nicer, exact same drug content.
