it sounds realistic to me earnings wise.(maybe the work will take a bit longer to clean).obviously the expenses he s put down are not full expenses(taxes,insurances,workwear,cleaning equipment,MOT,repairs,water bill,etc,etc).

i usually make more than 30k profit a year (after ALL taxes,insurances and expenses have been deducted) but i work more hours. ;)

I see somebody left him negative feedback because the 36ft Brodex Alloy never turned up, some people just don't
realise when luck is on their side.

That's why i sell my poles on eBay but would never sell a round there.
One man's rubbish is another man's treasure, yet try and sell your treasure there and you'll get rubbish bids.
Its full of dodgy geezers and you really need to be cautious about buying and selling anything on that site.

My brother just bought a north face coat for £80 which he insists is the real deal. I took one look at it and knew it was fake. The stitching was shocking and already starting to fray in multiple places.

defo comment of the year,

The guy is massively understating his expenses,  not worth 16k either for the amount of customers, I could have a serious amount of lealets delivered for that and get much more

Looks alright. £180 a year per customer, that's  good  going concern.

You want to be making at least  £100 a year per customer. Less than that and it's not sustainable.

BIt of a broad statement. Based on what?

Why does each customer have to make you at least 100 year?

He's advertising a Peugeot 307 56 plate Hdi.

It has an issue with the starter motor. STARTER MOTOR IS ON THE WAY OUT. STILL STARTS PERFECT BUT A SCREECHING SOUND IS BEGINNING. THEY ARE £20 FROM A SCRAPYARD AND 10 MIN JOB TO DO.


This sounds like a bit of a 'wide boy', a wheeler dealer.

The screeching noise is most likely from the dual mass flywheel and that won't cost £20 and 10 min job. Kind of gives me an idea of the guy who is selling the round. Sorry, I maybe wrong but those are my first impressions and I'm sticking with it.

He won't find many window cleaners with £16015 to pay for the round in our part of the world.

Worst things in the world if you cant handle your finances a must have if you can, guarantees your purchases, safer than using
a debit card which gives access to your money, even if you pay it back every month and never pay a penny interest it still gives
you an excellent credit rating and access to cheap loans should you ever need one.

No doubt credit cards are handy.

I have an account where I put money into it.  I only spend on what is needed, and any surplus accumilates. If I need credit card type potection I use my prepaid credit card.

I never want to be in any debt again. But then again anyone who has been through bankruptcy before will feel the same.

I don't have any debts, and wish to stay that way.   8)
