Pleading poverty..

[DHTiling]

Customers who plead poverty when you give them a price..


I priced a job back in may time(ish).. and tiled one small part to come back later to do the kitchen floor.. he wanted to save his pennies to get next bit done..

I got a call last week to come and finish ASAP... so going Sunday.. anyway i was just going out to the van last night to get some paper work and he pulls up in a bran spanking JAG..:yikes:.. bollox saving pennies.. i said business doing ok is it.. he just smiled and said well you know.. :lol:

hate to say this but you can have private plates on lease cars. hubby says so :yesnod:

Yeah you can actually, stick 'em on anything you have long enough to make the trip to swansea worthwhile. Anything less than a couple of years and I wouldn't bother myself but if you have the money for a nice Jag you have the money to send somebody to sort it all out.

 

[DHTiling]

I will ask him.. is it leased steve..:lol:.. he will just swear at me.

 

[Dan]

:lol:

Nah, just charge him more, supply and demand and all that, you're busier now so the price is more.
