Re: Partscenter Friend or Foe??????
After spending 10 minutes to get through to the call-centre, the phone-monkey tells me that my Merloni part number isn’t reconised!!!
“068886?”
“Computer says no!”
“C00068886?”
“Computer says no!”
“MER068886?”
“Computer says no!”
What’s the point? I haven’t even tryed the website, because I think I know what will happen 👿
Re: Quick tip…
Twas a brick wall! 😈 Twas fun! I really want a trebuchet.
I’ll type up the whole story later if I get 5 minutes 😉
Re: Sneaky…
Sorry, but I think it’s fantastically funny! 😀 It’s great!
How old is this site? And how much power and influence does it have in the trade now? Just the one manufactuer you reckon?
The growth of this site never ceases to amaze me 😀 😀 😀

Have you not got your instructions?
I’m sorry but I’ve never been to a Zanussi before, that has stopped bleeping 😕
Re: Bosch v ISE
I think the trick would be not to stand them next to each other in the shop.
The Bosch will have a slower spin. A 1400 Bosch is around £400ish, or only as cheap as £350 if you bought it off some internet people (without installation etc).
The plus points for the ISE is it’s story I think. I.S.E – Independent!!!! And the 5 years service. And the tub construction. It’s a machine worth £400.
When the public come to me for a washer, I tell them…
If your sending £200, go to Arg@s and buy a piece of… 🙁
If your sending £300 upwards, get a Bosch off me. 🙂
If your spending £500 upward get a Siemens off me. 🙂
The ISE is going to fill the gap perfect! 😀
And soon I think we’ll be selling the Bosch as the cheap pish if the Viva is anything like the rummors 😕

It February!!!!! It’s cold!!!!
By a wee chat, I meant discussing it on the Friday, maybe asking the manufactuers to share their plans or thoughts ❓
But thinking about it, there’s not much to discuss really, atm.
Re: what to sell ?
Looking at those Siemens, they have a five year guarantee, because they won’t break for 5 years! 😯
Like Del says, you’ll lose a customer for five years, so you wanna be making around £150 at least on the sale.
But my real advice, is sell the Creda until Feb, then get the ISE’s in 😉

Twasn’t my idea to go there, and twas full of kev’s 🙁
And look on the bright side Mr P. Toga is probably in the hands of some underground crime lord, who will give him a good home, and help develop his evil skills for world domination. 😈

I looks good, except there’s no Siemens section 😕
But everything has genuine part numbers; suckers! 😈

Tis a joke, right? 😯
Re: Loonies
Indeed. Completely nuts!
That’s almost as bad as drilling holes in the cabinet to remove some slightly awkward bolts. 😯
Re: Speaking of vacuums…
I like that picture! 😀
I’m 25. I went to ‘Guys thatched hamlet’ the other night near Garstang, and was asked for ID three times 😳 😳 😳
Ps. Mr P? Who did steal Toga? Who is Toga? What is Toga? I googled ‘Who stole toga?’ and it came back with matches for UKW 😆
Re: Foreign Objects/Zanussi Drum
I’ve got to admit to using Martin’s method afew times 😕
But it’s because of that lip, everything gets stuck at the front there.
I find when you give the customer a quote for splitting the tub, they don’t mind a slightly warped drum. Having said that, they usually bend back nicely 😀
I find if your open and honest with the customer, they’ll let you try all sorts of weird things 😉 Don’t let them watch!
