Nuts and bolts, ffx and Axminster tools for me
Powerful Supplies (aka Nuts & Bolts) http://www.powertool-supplies.co.uk or
Axminster http://www.axminster.co.uk
Axminster will price match if pushed, but I feel folks who price match are really saying "We'll gouge you if we can, but if you catch us out we still want a crack at your business".
Of course there are many other factors, such as if they actually hold stock of the item you want, and back up support, and in this respect Axminster are good.
Both have physical shops, and are not just internet resellers. The others mentioned in other posts probably have shops too; I've just only visited these two.
I have a good friend who speaks highly of D&M but I've not been there or used them for anything Festool.

They must be somewhat regretting their introduction to the FOG by now...

My opinion
Nuts and bolts seem to have a good stock of everything I've tried to order
Most of the stuff I've bought has been cross ordered from them by my usuall supplier
But FFX seem to be the cheapest online
But watch out for SLINGERS I've picked up a few bargians from them as they have good offers now and then

I tend to go to my local guy as much as possible he comes and goes with prices. I figure I should at least give him a shot at it. I also like the principle of supporting local business given that I am one.

I suspect it was the uncorroborated reference to the Festool representative telling them to do it...
Personally I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. They made a mistake, but they were big enough to own up to it and confess in public to their transgression. Hopefully they'll now proactively contribute to the FOG and redeem themselves. Then I might just forgive them... [wink]
