Ghillie kettle group buy

[Chiseller]

Hi chiseller,
I am replying to your post, firstly I do not own the Mkettle I'm in partnership with the US guy who designed it so my margins are not so great
and forgot to ask him if I could offer the 15%.
Secondly the Guy selling on Amazon might not be VAT registered I am.

Regards
Steve Ghillie Kettles.

Thanks for the personal reply Steve. Fair play to you on the margins line. As for vat registered, he might not be turning over enough to warrant being vat registered?
I still believe it's a poor carrot that's being dangled as far as the mkettle goes. For a parcel that is sub 1kg, perhaps you could have considered knocking a couple of quid from postage on the mkettle.

I wasn't in the market for a mkettle, till the prospect of obtaining one cheap arose. Then of course, the market is checked to confirm a 'good deal'.
Due to your response, it pitched me away from purchasing one via this group buy. So much so that it has made me look towards your rivals. Why not support another small business? Especially with it having a US slant on it anyway. So as I said "I'm aht" and will be going for a Backcountry Boiler or a Kelly kettle.

Thank you again and wish you well for your companies success.

Ah, the dreaded VAT bites again. I'm real happy with the MKettle, 1.0 and 1.5L Ghillies I have, good job! I'm mulling over the idea of some accessories.

Thanks Sandbag47 for all the effort. You can't please all of the people all of the time.

Ta, Phil

My posts arnt in away a dig or grumble at sandbag so why 'chip in' with your can't please line? V,,

Hi Chiseller,

Aye, they are, but as you've said, the mkettle has a U.S designer, so surely he profits from each unit. If a portion of my money is going U.S, then "in for a penny, in for a pahnd"
The extra cost is not off putting for a different product. No postage if it's brought over in person or via a friend.
As for LOL, it's hard not to show me lots of love..... It's the price I pay for my handsome looks or is it laugh out loud? Damn lol
Well back to the grindstone, sed me bit, Gud Elth :thumbup:

Fellas, albeit a group buy, presumably this still should be treated as a sales thread. The original question by Chis IMHO was valid, as was sandbags reply.

Everything else relating to pricing, and people chipping in, is in danger of derailing a "sales" thread. Carry the discussion on somewhere else, or leave it

Chiseller. You asked me a question and you got an answer you then insulted the people I am doing this GB with because you didn't like the answer you got. That is an insult to me and remember I will be doing more GB's if the future?
You seem to have made this an issue because you didn't your own way and thats put a taint on this GB. So I am asking you to please be an adult and stop! If you don't like you price of something you don't have to buy it. And please don't start on other folk or I will ask mods to get involved.

 

[sandbag47]

O' thanks Trunks I didn't notice you had put a comment before my last post.

I have just been onto phone to Ghillie kettle and he would like to appegise for getting involved. He was a bit upset at being At being called after allowing this GB.

I have just been speaking with Steve from ghillie kettles about a few things and he has turned around and said that he is not bothered about the '12' anymore. So guys you can get your kettle when you want now, next month, whenever. upto the end of November that is

So I will send out payment details to all of you and you can pay me when you like. Sooner you py sooner you get your kettles.

On that point the Mkettles will have to wait a few days as the away being anerdised at the moment but should be in by next week

I think I might have a good Monday for once

Ok folk have a good day all
