Default LF-Plumbing Fittings and Flex PVC

I have had a ridiculously hard time finding 2" PVC fittings. Im looking for a Gate Valve, 90's, 45's, unions, male adapters, ect. ect. Also a bunch of the same in 1.5".

I also need just a few feet of 1-1/4" Flex PVC and a few unions, 1-1/4 ball valve, ect.

Anyone know where I can get just a bit of Flex PVC and not have to buy a whole bunch???

The problem for me right now is that I have no car, so something in vancouver is way easier for me. If its too far away or out of the way, I can't really get a ride out.

Anyways, anyone have anything to sell or a name of a store IN Vancouver?

Thanks!

PS. Someone buy my 90G so I can pay for all this plumbing stuff!!!!!!!

No actually. Sounds like a good idea though. I will look some up.

Im guessing there really is not much of a market for selling stuff like flex PVC by the foot but if anyone knows somewhere that does, can you let me know?

I've ask most hot tub stores around and they won't sell it.

All my Spa-flex was from hot tub places sold by the foot, 2" fittings (elbows, couplers) and pipe from a Rona, 2" union valve then needed more of a industrial supplier. I used Bartle and Gibson in Edmonton but see they have a branch in Vancouver. http://www.bartlegibson.com/bc.html

In my opinion, the best place around Vancouver for PVC fittings, valves etc is Corix Water Products.

I don't know too much about pricing, so for example, are these decent prices:

All Sch40

2" Gate Valve $18.45
2" Bulkhead $13.50
2" Unions $14.35
Black PVC Flex $17.62 (1.5" and 10' length)

Just a few examples of their prices. Wondering if this is pretty competitive?

Thanks!

Seems good, think I paid something like $60 for my true union ball valve.
