I paid just over $21 for my 1" threaded gate valves at that same Corix on Thursday, cash sale, not a account, but they looked through some accounts to find me a good deal on them. I did buy 4 of them and came to around $95 total after tax.

Yup they're expensive but won't seize or get stuck on you like the other valves at Rona or hd, worth the extra $10 if you ask me....

yeah, I went with these for their quality, after researching on the forum, but curious how people are getting cheaper prices than I paid

All I can say in my experience not at corix but in general cash sales sometimes boil down to who helps you, how busy they are, how much they help you and so on. It "pays" to chat up the sales guy with what you're doing and sometimes you just luck out and he finds it interesting =)

Also, there are a couple of grades to some PVC stuff as well. Some things are CSA approved, some aren't, the ones that are cost more.
