Yeah I phoned up endicotts and bought one from there! Payed over the phone and it came next day :) Reasonably priced and it was a brand new unused millbank :)
If you don't want to pay buy phone and go down the endicotts route ebay sometimes has a couple but the ones you bid for usually get alot of bids! if your lucky you might come across a buy it now one

Yep, Endicotts is the best. Ebay rarely have any listed, and the quality can be very hit n miss.

+1 for Endicotts great service when I ordered mine

[Roadkillphil]

millbanks rule! I got mine from work a long while back. But Endicotts is a yep :D

i bought 3 from endicotts tuther day, thought it would be an idea to snatch a few up as they are hard to come by! they did point out this batch would be the last for a while and they had a waiting list of about 120,000 people!

Basically, servicable means it will still do it's job, as intended. For the price difference, I'd go for the grade 2. I use a grade two milbank bag from Endies, and the only things different from a brand new one are, it hasn't got that "new" taste to the water coming out :D, and the ink on the stamp is a little worn out :)

lol thanks Jus and Crazy that helps, it'll do the job but not look all new= cheaper that'll do me!!!!!

[Adam Savage]

No worries Rich. Some people actually prefer the worn in ones. Some say they work better, some say they taste better, who knows. All I know is they still work fine lol.

Hiya guys thanks for your help! Finally got a used one off ebay :) and will be bringing it to the Cornwall RV :)

[Adam Savage]

You got lucky there. Ebay doesn't have them very often. Great find :)

Don't bother, there's running water on site and no streams. ;)

That;s a very good point Martin. I guess it depends how much you trust the standpipe lol.

[Martin]

Ha ha, well it is mains water and that's not too bad in Cornwall. Seeing as we have the highest water rates in the country you would expect best bitter to flow out of the taps but sadly it's just water.

I must say it tasted good last year, and I think mead could be better than bitter :p
