    Why?

    You need to give more info than that.

    Its like asking a chip shop how much for one chip.

    Or a pub how much for a mouthful of beer.

    Or a navvie to dig half a hole

    Seriously ??

    Please read your post again and then consider if perhaps you should have included a few more details for people to then give an educated response to

    Corny I know but it’s a classic case of ‘how long is a piece of string’

    I’m not in ‘the trade’ but in the catering industry. One of my roles is obtaining quotes and purchasing equipment

    So if I ask a supplier ‘what’s the going rate for an oven’ - should I expect to receive any useful replies ?
