@Screwdriver here you are, my taps in all their glory! God knows what I'm going to do with them, think this means I've at least 3 sets up to m14 plus machine taps!

Delicious. None of them are a packet of three though.
I am as unlikely to complain about that as I am to have the opportunity....

When I ordered it didn' mention set it said s/t p/t which I assume is starter and plug. And also it does say set no7 on the order and invoice. You lot are hard to please!

Are the taps exactly the same?
As it does say 'Available in 3 chamfer lengths - taper, plug, and bottoming' on their website

I see no differences between your so called Taps & Tap Sets?

I think we all owe arclikeharrypotter a big thanks but I doubt we'll ever get our hands on any of these taps. Had he not told everyone about this offer, he might have gotten away with it too but with all of us jumping on it, well, there probably aren't that many of these items in the country let alone in stock.
Maybe when we all get our refunds, we could chip into a fund and buy him one as a consolation. One of the smaller ones mind...
Naa, you've got that the wrong way around. He should buy us some taps as punishment for getting all our hopes up !

Only slightly off topic but I had a couple of items in my Zoro basket whilst comparing prices on Cromwell, when I changed windows the Zoro window gave me 5% off, the items were already 25 to 30% cheaper than the Cromwell site. The mad thing is as I use the same account on both sites they are effectively Dutch Auction bidding against themselves.
