    i dont rent out

    and i dont cut corners

    The bathroom suite is a brand new. was fitted by a professional gas safe registered bloke

    Its like I always say, dont buy cheap shoite to save money eg go to primark. But why pay £60 for a pair of adidas if you can get exactly the same for £20

    You don't cut corners, and yet you bought an entire (new) bathroom suite for £50. Something's not quite right with what you're saying. <laugh>

    Yeah there is something wrong there. Just paying for work alone would be a couple hundred quid.

    Your wages make minimum wage look like a lottery win.

    Eh? I'm responding to what you're posting, and you're posting ridiculous prices for things, so WTF do you expect? I guess I should just be grateful you aren't posting your usual religious bollocks in this thread.

    Its all about knowing whats what sam

    I bought the suite of a fella I know who is actually in the double glazing game. He was fitting windows in a house and the owner had bought it but his Mrs didnt want it

    Now I have all my windows done by this guy so I get extremely good rates of him. He rang me knowing I needed a new suite. £50

    My friend is a corgi (now gas safe) registered plumber. He wanted £200 for removing and fitting. I removed and cleared up , he just came and fitted £50

    minimum wage is a load of crap if you want to earn a living these days

    I know a brickie who would love regular work. More important than minimum wage

    and in all honesty its not like they declare everything to the tax man when things are good
