Eastern Sporting in Chelmsford charge £50 for a RFD transfer?

Do your clients tell you that they could cut their own lawns for nothing

 

 

Last time I tried to double the price of one of my jobs because I got my estimate so badly wrong and couldn't keep doing it for that price any more, that's exactly what they said

 

I'm not saying that it's a vast amount of money and I'd be better off going to get it myself. £30 isn't a lot of money, £50 isn't all that bad. I'd pay £100 if I had to. I'm not a tight wad and am happy to pay the going rate for anything. This isn't being tight. I've been bent over and I'm just complaining about it!

 

THE FACT IS EVERYONE ELSE I'VE DEALT WITH DOES IT FOR £25!

[Dunkield]

I think maybe you guys get paid too much! I expect to have to work for nearly two hours for £30

Seems a lot for manual unskilled labour

[al4x]

stupid question but can't you just use someone else?

[Slug]

I exclusively use Essex gun Romford for my ammo and bits and bobs and I had recently bought a new gun from them, I think it was for this reason the owners charged me SFA to except an RFD transfer to them from another dealer when they couldn't supply what I needed..That's service !

I used coopers of woodbastwick £25 Total bargain mate

yeah? cant stand that cooperman, be honest he's a bit of a ****. Frank's ok he knows his stuff, but what cooperman doesn't know he'll just make up, don't like that kind of B/S.

Dear all,

 

To clarify the debate on this subject we do not charge £50 for a transfer, we charge £30 which is roughly £25 + VAT.

 

If a customer wishes their gun sent by TNT Next Day Delivery and insured, the carrier charges between £15-£18 + VAT.

Neil,

 

Watch out for jiffy bags frank marked from Essex.

 

It will almost certainly contain a Jack Russell truffle :blink:

Have a look all the way through the thread and also do a search for your business name on this site - You will find that you get very good press indeed.

Alan,

This could be not so much a bad advert as a good one, as I for one did not know about your shop and now i do :-) so another customer gained.

Hello Alan,

As said before in this thread Eastern Sporting gets very good rep on this site and I for one cannot rate your shop and services highly enough. See you next week to stock up on catridges again (at a discount of course for such a good review )

[ME]

Another vote for Eastern Sporting.

 

Alan is a super chap and always has time for everyone.

 

Now, Essex Gun, they are totally "£$%^&* !!!!! (apart from big Al and George)

[the running man]

I bought a gun from alan 2 years ago,yes nice to deal with. My guy charges £15 transfer fee,and £15 carridge,so I won't tell my guy in case he puts his price up!
