  2. Some of these posts really make you question yourself on times, i remember a newbie running around the block telling everyone about this amazing new painter on the scene just started up and was cheap as chips as he wanted to grow his business....you guessed it by the end of the month the painter had so much work he put his prices up.
  3. Dont think you will get much luck with auctions dealers already paying way over the odds for this kind of stock who are well established and can offer a perceived added value for the stock and therefore charge more than you will be able to.

  8. its the sign of the times sadly its the way a lot of people communicate, we have a pay as you go sim phone which we send such items out so we dont have to give our personal phone number out. Whatsapp is massive cant see it going away anytime soon, to be fair we use it a lot in work and works really well for group messages.
  9. Are you not turning up at your potential customers door step ? who needs to advertise drop them a business card get your trade plates and insurance sorted and away you go, next time the garage wants something collected they ring you direct instead of paying a commission for an agency to do it. is it really that simple or am i missing something

  11. three words spring to mind...................can of worms.
  12. If you have to use them i would wait until they join forces with there new owners ebay that way i suspect they will roll all three under one bill and it will cost your pennies to use them.
  13. and clea and clearly not for a solicitor smells of google advise.com to me.
  14. Why not there well within statute to claim for the item being mis~sold
  15. That would never work for us plus its always the first port of call during a HMRC inspection, over the years i have just found it easier to avoid the stuff. As in all things in life what works for you doesnt for others.
  16. Would say dirty but i avoid it at all costs, due to the banking charges incurred when paying it in.
  17. same as most vendors you pays your money you takes your chances.
  18. There very price sensitive with lots of selection around so much people tend not to travel for them so price is key
