I didnt know they were past their best at 10 years! Interesting. Anyway mine were 6 years old. They cost about £7 in the garden centre near me.... How much were the ones you were looking at Wizard?

£10.99 Vair but its a upmarket type of place where we only go for a look round.Just in passing aren't Little Bay Leaf Trees expensive I've tried to get cuttings to grow with little or no success

Yes bay trees are expensive. I fancied a couple in pots for the front door but they were too expensive.

Some plants grow very readily from tiny bits - especially if you have a wee polly bag in your pocket
