We went looking a few weekends ago for the little part of the shower unit that holds up the shower head as my mum’s had broken in half. (We had already looked at Trade Me etc). We finally found the piece but the plumbing guy said that most people didn’t buy these due to their price, they just bought whole new shower units. At $62 it was at that breaking point where you do tend to wonder if it would be best to invest a bit more and get the whole shower unit brand new given that my mum’s shower is about 12 years old. I took a gamble and stood firm to my ‘non-consumer train’ voice and just bought the actual piece that we needed rather than throwing out a perfectly good shower unit and replacing it. Only time will tell if it was the right decision.
