Summary
Catalyst maintain an extensive list of Manufacturer and After Market parts and prices files for use by authorised dealers/franchises, these updates can subscribed to or bought on a ad-hoc basis.
Once a parts/price update has been subscribed to or bought, the update is made available to you for download.

Provided
- Each file always contains the "Stock Code" and "Description".
- Information also provided if supplied by the manufacturer is "Retail Price", "Cost Price", "Group or Discount Code", "Supersession", "V.A.T. Rate" and "Pack Quantity".
- It may seem odd that prices are not always provided, but manufacturers tend to provide a recommended retail price, and either a discount code or an explicit cost price. After market suppliers tend to give a cost price but not always a recommended retail price.
