Fees for house sale/purchase

I'm just wondering what you would do..

We have just accepted an offer on our house and have also had an offer accepted on a house. So it's come down to the number crunching.

I've been in contact with a MA whose fees are £500
Legal fees for purchase - £1521 and for sale £1021
EA fees are non negotiable

The rates I've gotten through the MA are no better than I can get through my current lender who is my bank. They will also include valuation and purchase legal fees. If I went with this option, I could save £2000. Our last remortgage we went direct to the bank so I'm happy to do the application process etc

Would you go for it or is there something glaringly obvious that I'm missing and I should suck it up and use the MA and legal team for both purchase and sale?
