What consumables actually cost, per unit that matters

Suppliers publish bottle prices, carton prices and pack prices, which makes comparison deliberately hard: a $40 concentrate at 1:100 is 25x cheaper cleaning than a $6 spray used neat, and a cheap toner cartridge with a tiny page yield is not cheap. Every table here converts to the unit that matters and sorts by it. Every price is read from the supplier's own site.

rate cards, not products

Compared from each provider's own published rate card. For these two the excluded list is the story.

Courier rates
Sending a parcel without an account: who publishes a price, and what it is.
Card payments & fees
Terminals, gateways, BNPL and bank transfer: who publishes a rate, and what is bundled into it.

Suppliers listed without prices

38 suppliers were checked and left out, each with its reason. A supplier that hides its prices behind a trade login fails the same test an ISP fails when it publishes no price without a service address.

Trade Me timber storesTrade Me's terms prohibit automated access to listing pages, so nothing here is scraped. Our API client is built and the developer application is registered/pending, at which point stores like Rangitikei Timber appear with Buy Now prices linked to their listings.

Method

Supplier catalogues are read from each supplier's own public product feed or pages. Products are placed into categories and their unit maths extracted by reviewed rules, never by guesswork: anything the rules cannot place, or any concentrate without a published dilution ratio, is held out of the tables rather than listed with a wrong number. Raw captures are kept, dated, so any supplier can be shown the exact page we read. No affiliate links, no sponsored placement, no supplier relationships.

No supplier pays to appear here. There are no affiliate links, no referral fees and no sponsored placement anywhere on this page. Published by iterate as a public reference. Prices include GST and were read from each supplier's own site on the capture date shown; check the linked page before buying. Spotted a wrong price? Tell us and it gets fixed.
