    I,m sick of paying over the top for inputs, the likes of magenta direct are no better than the local robbing co.op...anybody have experience of this buyrite crowd?theyre starting off on the right foot by charging e195 per year subscription...ffs, charging you to buy from them...the savings would want to be impressive.

    Did a bit of research there . The company that owns magenta direct also own Buyrite solutions!!

    I see what there trying to do but that seems like a big confect of interest.

    If they find a something cheaper than magenta are they really going to send you there .

    If you are paying 200 odd euro t access lower prices you would need to be buying 5K+ of product from that supplier. Neither Magenta or Agri direc are always the cheapest, I picked up 3.5 litres of Animec pour on for 69 euro in a Kerry co-op store this week no postage no checking prices. Maybe I could have saved 2-5 euro elsewhere. You really have to be aware of prices and value, you will always get caught and lose a few, but for a lot of smaller lads you be really wanting to be spending a lot on supplies to use a provider like buyrite,

    Anybody actually signed up to them tho? I'd imagine if theyre tied in with Magenta, who are no great shakes, then they couldn't be much good.

    Not with them myself but heard they were good. Mind you those lads left them when we started our own purchasing group

    i use magneta for dairy supplies and sprays they tend to be very good value compared to local stores. flat rate delivery charge of €5 regardless of how much you order. I find it handier than going to local store.

    Magenta is basically Buyrite for people that don't want to pay the sub. Roughly speaking, Buyrite price is 95% magenta price.

    I'm with then a good many years now and find them good on prices. I would be saving the membership fees on vaccinations every year, more or less, and I buy a good lot of other stuff from them as well.

    I can order stuff this morning and have it in my yard before 12 the following day so no driving off to collect stuff and handy as I wouldn't have a car every day to do that anyway.

    Incidentally, their prices are lower than Magenta direct prices.

    We were signed up to them but stopped a few years ago. Thinking of going back again because of the price of vaccines and dose off the local vet. Buy everything else off a local merchant who's fairly competitive on price and will have anything you order out by the end of the day.
