WWWAAAYYY off topic…70 quadrant showers to sell any ideas?

ok so long story short my old man and I have a container full of brand new quadrant shower units. showers glass door fibreglass back panels the lot!

rather than trying to sell them one by one on ebay anyone got any ideas how we can shift multiple units at a time or even all of them???

if you do decide to sell them individually send me some details – mail in profile.

contact housebuilder companies?
Independant plumbers/building supplies shops?

we have been selling them on ebay already have sold 5 or 6 but its taking a lot of managing and time

i’ll send you on some info

Can you go find a local independant bathroom ‘showroom/ sales’ place?

Details/dimensions to my email as well please.

Contact Alan Sugar and see if you can get selling shower units as a challenge on the next Apprentice?

Or, perhaps more helpfully, contact a housing developer who may be doing up a lot of units at once?

Oh, that was Stoner’s plan… well, Stoner and titusrider +1.

Hotels/B&Bs

Call a few local tradesmen from the yellow pages and do them a deal (cheaper price than trade) and they may push them onto their customers – make sure you get cash on delivery though.

I understand France has a shortage of this sort of thing.

Ho ho!

Put a pony in my pocket.
I’ll fetch the suitcase from the van….

snaps wwaswas you have mail

cheers for the ideas guys quite liking the bathroom showroom idea, not many hotels around us we arnt in the most touristy area

my old man is a house building company so think he has asked around already

I hate to think what the shipping cost to france would be haha

Surely no housebuilder would buy them as there’s no manufacturer/retailer backing when they go wrong?

Ho ho!

Don’t you mean He Haw He Haw!!!

Lot of traders on eBay – try listing a lot – say 10?

I am also intetested,Could i have details
email in profile

Send them all on down to Highway 61?

You don’t say if they are any good though. Trouble with trying to flog them to local traders etc is that they may already be able to get the same thing at a better price from their trade centre. Seems a good idea to try and use eBay and offer a mix of single units and job lots of 5 or 10.

There’s a bloke near us, advertises in the local free papers as an independent bathroom design and fit service. He has bought job lots of certain products which he tends to steer customers towards.

Assuming you don’t live near Stafford, there might be somebody who does that sort of thing near you.

how did all that glass survive falling off the lorry?

haha no lorry involved, they were all ordered and shipped in for a development that he was building and now the architect has changed the design so only half the number of en-suites so now have spare units to try and get rid off

nicolaisam i have all the details in the office and will send them in the morning cheers

obvious answer is to try and find some other development. failing that…some import/export or construction company in a country where they are still building housing?

Isn’t this sort of what Alibaba is for or am I mistaken?

details and dimensions for me to please

My mrs requires ( read WANTS ) a new bathroom

Ta

haha no lorry involved, they were all ordered and shipped in for a development that he was building and now the architect has changed the design so only half the number of en-suites so now have spare units to try and get rid off

Is this covert trade ad then?

If the architect has changed the spec after goods were ordered then you can claim costs off of them. Then you you could give away the enclosures 😉

konabunny whats is alibaba?

no covert trade ad haha was just looking for ideas, he cant / wont claim anything off the architect as its a close business contact that he has had for years and years and if he didnt try to claim them it could put them under, too nice for his own good in my opinion

Could be interested as well. Can I get dimensions and cost please? Also is it splittable? I.e. the glass on its own, base, etc?

Business to business trade exchange (of which I have no personal experience – I just know it exists – don’t know whether it’s any good)

Slim chance a couple of guys I know could take them. Can you mail me full details? Email should be in profile

Konabunny that places looks perfect, no one looking in the buying bit but i’ll stick an advert up and see what happens..cheers

Cheers
