Alium Medical Services are charging

ERFA Thyroid 30mg 20p per tablet

ERFA Thyroid 60mg 25p per tablet

ERFA Thyroid 120mg 35per tablet, plus £6.50p charge.

Yet Tollesbury Pharmacy quote

ERFA Thyroid 30 mg 0.80p per tablet

ERFA Thyroid 60mg 0.80p per tablet?

Why such a big difference in two chemists? I tried TOLLESBURY first and was left stunned, especially when I was told the price. Who is right. Could Alium Medical services be selling me dud tablets? Or are TOLLESBURY just overcharging?
