  1. I managed a couple of O Levels and some grade one CSE’s. From 14 I had a Saturday job as a Valetter, went full time at 16 and bought my first PX at 17 when I passed my test. Bought and sold for 2/3 years whilst Valetting and then got a proper job at an insurance company, then a bank advancing to branch manager. Throughout this period I continued Trading. I never stopped buying and selling.... it’s in my blood, been doing it over 35 years now. I got made redundant in the late 90’s and went full time doorstepper...
  2. Well, that's because I haven't been working and I own my own stock. I'm solvent, I'm not a bitch to a third party stocking loan company dictating running/controlling my business

  11. That’s customers, just tell them you welcome any professional inspection, because your mechanic will tell you what a fab car it is
  12. Yes, Lawgistics booklets for 30 days.
  13. A stunner in leggings..... mmmmm Camel
  14. You don't see it very often because it's become highly collectable - I've witnessed someone nabbing some and going off with it in a plastic bag.
  15. I’ve pulled all my advertising, my website is blank and my phone is on aeroplane mode and I’ve still had two emails saying I know your own hols but wanting to buy when I’m back. Spose, I can’t complain One of them has even contacted CD5 to forward me an email..... is there no anonymity....
  16. I’ve never used them, but the general consensus is it’s rubbish...
  17. Are you talking Motors or Ebay Motors Pro ? They are two separate mediums?
  18. 30 days cancellation notice, that’s all.
  19. Drifter, have you notified HMRC about your change in occupation?
  20. Once you “turn to the dark side” there is no going back.
