http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/Business-...K:MEBIDX:IT&_ssn=the_childrens_society&_sac=1 Surely they would have a researcher to price accordingly ?? That said they do have stuff like reels of cables / circuit breakers / plumbing push fit connectors etc, but prices seem overboard on most items, therefore other ebayers / merchants, would get my business instead What are your thoughts
Prices do seem a bit high, I'm more intrigued as to where they get this stuff from, how many people would donate good working cordless drills to a charity ???.
Not just cordless drills, there's allsorts like plumbing / electrical / tyres / showers / under sink water heater 3D Desktop printer / VW Brake discs etc I am thinking that these are not donations, but bought from suppliers, with their high mark up on the end price, using the Charity name in the hope to get the sales. If not bought from suppliers, then it may be dodgy as where their kit comes from
Possibly a business has donated them due to closing a shop etc, or they've had a big effort at obtaining donations from businesses.
yeah i agree. a lot of people assume ebay is the cheapest place to buy too. ive seen a few things go for more than at a retailers. crazy!
I've had a few good deals on ebay, but like Fats, I've seen some stupid prices being asked for and you really must know what is being offered!
That's a possibility I wouldn't rule out I am on the understanding that some put the prices up rather than show out of stock, then there are the greedy bunch etc
