The electric spray pump has a 5 litre solution bottle, and we used it for spraying shampoo or protector on carpets and/or upholstery has hand held sprayer. (no pumping necessary just plug in to the electric)

j ,

I've got to say a better set up that this was on eBay for ages constantly resisted as it got no interest, at the end ihe was asking £11k

I mean no offence but I think you should rethink your price

Sorry Mike, LJ wants to sell the ramps as whole package with the van and TruckMount. But thanks anyway.

didn't you read he's retiring........ offer to pay in Viagra or arthritis medication you might get him to sell

problem is the colour and carpet cleaning who ever buys it will have to respray it again, or risk a nasty letter saying cease passing off from SM

sold a machine with less hours in a van with less miles ( abet the van was 3 years older) for much less than half this amount, I suspect it will hang around for a while like most then go

« **Reply #17 on:** May 02, 2012, 08:52:23 am »

So you cant use a yellow van in case SM get on your back,since when did they or any one else trade mark a colour,

If they contacted me and said anything like what you mention, first off I'd tell them ferk off, then.. please, please try and stop me using the colour yellow, through the courts if you like......

Apart from that it is over-priced by about a third but as they have retired I suppose they can wait, although not too long as it will depreciate further.

I think Paul meant the colour of the machine I believe sm pay extra to have the boxxer421 painted yellow so that everyone knows it a sm machine

I could be wrong but I think that's the way it is

« **Reply #19 on:** May 04, 2012, 01:18:59 pm »

The colour of the van AND the machine might be a problem - Its a tough one the colour issue BUT you can't just assume SM would not be successful in a 'passing off' action if they wanted to get legal - you could ask them of course - fact is, if it was a drain jetter in the back then they could not do anything about it but it is a carpet extractor and that is precisely what the 'passing off' case law will consider - very much depends if they wanted to be spiteful or are not that bothered!

If you put new graphics on it completely dis-similar to the SM brand it might help your case

« **Reply #20 on:** May 05, 2012, 07:23:40 am »

Cannot see the problem unless your passing yourself off as a s/m franchise, I can go and get a yellow extracta machine put it in a yellow van infact there are plenty that do. There are also plenty guys advertise the fact they are ex S/M, do S/m come down hard on these? cannot see how they can.

« **Reply #21 on:** May 05, 2012, 12:46:05 pm »

maybe not, Look nice that van on your drive

« **Reply #22 on:** May 09, 2012, 05:12:36 pm »

I really don't think the colour will bother SM.

The reason the buyer will want to change the colour is because it's yellow.

This is over priced, should be £ 10k (5k van 5k machine) and that's generous.

Less £90.00 after I have brought the hose ramps

« **Reply #24 on:** May 11, 2012, 08:51:56 pm »

has van been had protector coating applied internally

« **Reply #25 on:** May 12, 2012, 01:13:55 pm »

I imagine the you are talking about the sort of thing that Alltec do. There is no protective coating apart from being part boarded on the sides and on the roof. We are not longer vat registered and are now prepared to discuss the initial asking price less any VAT element.

« **Reply #26 on:** May 12, 2012, 03:53:12 pm »

What about the hose ramps

David I have da ja vue, I'm sure a couple of months ago you was asking for x2 hose ramps and some guy in Somerset came on with two for sale at £150 each.(good price) Did you not buy them? or are you collecting them

« **Reply #29 on:** May 12, 2012, 11:32:25 pm »

He never answered me I tried several times to contact him must have changed his mind

« **Reply #30 on:** May 14, 2012, 09:42:33 pm »

It's tricky getting a value of TM and van but what I would do is look up the book price of van, for the TM since it's a HM I would call HM and ask them, they must be the best placed to know used value.

Personally I would take the total add £1k advertise and drop until I got shot of it.

Not neccessarily Hilton - thats why I commented - I worked for a company where we produced a product that was deemed to be 'passing off' as another product and it is no joke - in fact we knew nothing about the other product but thats no defence - it depends on how keen SM are on protecting their trademark and the colour is very much part of that IP - it all depends on how highly they rate their profile - it would certainly not be laughed out of court...
