So they have a guy who always deals with the trade? Do they have to leave you at the counter while they go get him if he's not there rather than dealing with you?

think he meant at head Office Dan, so what did they do before ?

Ahhhh, I'm with you now.

When I worked there it was the store's responsibility to ensure they kept the trade coming into their store. New stores would have extra help and campaigns going but in the main you just physically rung tilers when you saw cards or ads that you hadn't seen before and ask them to come in to get some prices on their next job and see if he liked them and the service.

Was a 50/50 outcome but that's good enough if you do a couple a week.

I'm going to be out on my own here but i'm going to say it anyway, my local Topps is really good, all the staff are really helpful and know their stuff.Anything they don't know, they go out of their way to find out. I must be one of the fortunate ones to live near this store. I have been in others that aren't so good but Grantham has a rare gem! As for the adhesive prices, I went into my local TG (Lincoln) yesterday and they couldn't match the addy prices, don't know if it's because I hadn't used them before, but there you have it!!!
