Hi All

Does any of the Premium members know if we get a discount from The Transfer Press?

I am posting this on behalf of another member on here who's mother tongue is not English, hence why I am posting it.

Kind regards

Simon

er...wrong ethics young man.....
thats like holding a gun to someones head and saying - "pay me".
if a customer done that to us, we would tell them to go to the other supplier that gives you discount...goodbye and phone down...no arguing, no assing about...plain and simple !

main suppliers have 1000's customers on there books bud....one pissed of customer causes he/she didnt get discount aint gonna bother them:rolleyes:

@bigj2552 I did expect Simon to take it with a pinch of salt and not literally lol - this is me posting and you know I am not a serious guy (most of the time) lol

I said it with the expectation that Simon would look around to see if what he needed was not available from a discount supplier at a good price before placing an order.

Anyway remind me to never phone a Scottish supplier because if they are all like Johnny on the telephone whats the point in me trying to barter lol

lol...thats why 90% of the suppliers are down south :biggrin:

and in saying that - the only discount i would haggle with would be "bulk buy" discounts....but for other every day stuff, the prices are on site, some with multi-buy discounts already in place
Suppliers will be same....price on site and if your buying bulk, email us...

Hi Guys

Two things, I did take it with a pinch of salt even though my orginal post does say that its not actually for me :-)

Secondly, I see nothing wrong in saying to someone "is that the best you can do" I certainly would not hang up on them, standard business practice in my industry.

depending on what he is after they do offer some good price breaks for items, you never know their french may be better than he thinks, i am sure they will help out best they can, but i would have thought most of what they offer will be available to him there (if its who i am thinking it is)

I certainly wouldnt hang up on some one after getting a better price, in fact bartering is good ...........
