In fairness, they are also high if you do want thousands.. Many of us just read their price lists to make us feel good about how much we pay elsewhere.

What he said. Literally all the cartridges I've bought have been reassuringly cheaper everywhere else! 
All the best prices I’ve found tend to be at shooting grounds with a retail shop . Often for the simple reason that they can shift the volume required for good pricing . Some give a few bob extra to members . The place that I buy mine only does cash or debit card , as the margin is so tight on the 1000 price . The carriage costs alone make cartridge shopping on the internet a non starter .

Just looked at JustCartridges, I can buy my preferred cartridges cheaper per 1,000 locally and you dont have to wait in for the delivery, just pop into my local gun shop when passing.
I used to buy mine online down here. If you bought a thousand carriage was free... then it became two thousand... now to get free carriage you have to buy 15 thousand to get free carriage !

I buy from JC, it's on the way home from work. May be a couple of quid dearer per thousand, but saves me time and fuel, not having to do miles on a round trip to save the couple of quid per thousand. Makes me chuckle when people want to buy online cartridges, then expect them to be cheaper even after adding delivery.
If people are really that desperate to save a few quid per thousand, then shooting really isn't the game for you. :no:

Local supply (or a ground you’re visiting regardless) is the practical solution for regular consumption.. Having said that, I used to get Clever from Scotland! But free delivery for 10,000 which I took.
For me it’s not so much desperation as just trying to avoid paying over the odds for the same product available elsewhere really plus weighing up whether it was worth getting the car out or having them arrive automatically.I buy from JC, it's on the way home from work.

Anyway I found a place near me (Clarkes of Walsham) who had all six sorts I wanted to try for a good price & free delivery so they’ll be arriving tomorrow. Happy days

No, me neither. And who's to say that because we're not minted then we shouldn't enjoy shooting and look after the little money we do spend on it?! I do believe my gun goes bang and shot flies out the end of it the same as everyone elses, correct??I would not sniff at saving £10 per 1000
Wish I had as much spare cash as captain moneybags above, but then again I wouldn't want it to make me as big a patronising dick!

He really isn't and he knows just how many cartridges I buy a year hence the laughing face and me wanting to save money.
