They're all ridiculous.
With the financial state of this country, credit crunch, gold buying demand and many other factors like a possible recession, customers are starting to tighten their purse strings which means window cleaning will be low on their priority of neccesities. If troubled times are ahead, some financially burdened customers will reduce their cleaning frequency or possibly even cancel.
Recessions have a way of bringing prices (products/services/incomes) back down to earth. It's all down to supply & demand.

I like to stay positive, not negative, but the warning signs are blatantly obvious. No good closing your eyes and trying to hope it will go away, it won't. Why do you think these sellers are trying to make a quick buck while they still can.

personally, and i am not into politics,

i think a recession is being fended off in a huge way, its already here in real terms,

but the warning signs have been around for a long time, and like this goverment or not, ... america has given notice to the rest of the world, and our government has responded.

the economy is one of the strongest in the world and can hold off this slump.

How do you lot know if these rounds are worth the money or not if you havn't enquired how long they take and what type of work they are.

Thats more of your negativity Jonah only this time at least there was no one to slander.

one round has been sold for £22,000 and its only £2,230 p/m!!!!

If thats how much you can get, then there would be no window cleaners, only canvassers!
