Credit Crunch Over ???
 

Thought I would do my bit to kickstart the economy .
Started spending again .
Just treated myself to .......


















Setanta sports added to Sky Package !!!!!!!!!!

Well u have to start somewhere .
Come on folks doom and gloom over .
It was all in the mind :cuckoo:

Anybody else splashing the cash ?????

intrest rate and vat might of gone down but that doesnt mean that banks will start lending

I'm trying to buy a used motor bike, but the clowns selling them don't seem to think the credit crunch should effect them

Just watching the amount of unsold/reserve not met cars & motorbikes on ebay is scarey.

You're doing a really bad impression of Lewis. :lol1: :thumb:

My redundancy on tuesday begs to differ.

Sellers need to get a grip before things start moving.

Houses and Cars - only the sensibly priced stuff is selling.

No offence Hank.Sorry to hear that .Just trying to lighten the mood .
Hope you get something else soon .

Jeez, sorry to hear that, fella. :(

Oh, don't worry about it, didn't mean to bring a downer, maybe should have ended with ! or :D

I'm not in the least offended, cool with the whole thing, just being flippant in this thread :D

(ask me again in may or june!!)

okies :thumb: :lol1:

Good Man .Thats the spirit >:thumb:

Right ,treating the family to a Curry tonight as well .Couple of beers ,watch Man u Sunderland .

I will soon get this country back on track .!!!!!!!!!!!!! sPEND SPEND SPEND .

Sold my Impreza and bought a load of shares in the company I work for. Lots of people trying to sell cars seem to be asking unreasonably high prices then moaning about nothing selling. It will sell if it's properly priced!

Thinking about putting one of my houses on the market next spring as well for another project.

Dont be giving it away though .Tried to sell a couple of property,s last year with no luck .Will keep now till things are improved .Still paying for itself while rented out .Ho Hum .
Wouldnt mind the cash right now though .!!!

No won't be giving it away ;) I rent it out, have owned it for 16 years and rented out. I'm planning a renovation of a property in Ireland and need to fund that. If I don't get what I'm looking for I'll keep renting it out until the market improves.

I wanted a place in France ,but it will have to wait .Especially now with the rate of the pound v the Euro .Missed the boat for the moment .
Catch it next time its in port !!

Good Luck on your project .

Tell me about it, the exchange rate is the bigest killer in all of this!

Spent over £1k on a cooker I didn't need the other day. :D

Redoing the main bedroom...:(

New bed,oak floor and oak furniture..

9.5k blown :(

I would sleep in a spud bag,but the Mrs aint up for that..

That must be some Boudoire !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:eek: Must be a masive bedroom

32627 Bachmann Class 221 Super Voyager 5 car DEMU : Welcome to Kernow Model Rail.

Does this count?

As Dave said above, trying to buy a motocross bike and it's impossible. I had one bloke walk away from a deal for £5! :cuckoo:

It all helps .

Not at all...16x14..

Flooring was nearly 2k tho....:cry: :cry:

I would have gone for the Shagpile!!!!!!!!!!!

Nope, spending as little as possible. Was planning on selling my car and trading up, but am now selling it and trading down to bank the remainder.

People should be saving money, not spending. Brown and his crazy government want people to spend spend spend to keep the bubble going - but all this will do is prolong the pain, as at the end of the day it's not sustainable.

The sooner we get to a sustainable level the better. Not until then will we start to see things get better overall.

I'd suggest you won't get many buyers for the car, and won't get much for it.....however you will get a bargain when you come to buy.

Lots of cars on ebay not meeting reserve.

Spend within your means .
Surely if everybody hoards their money ,it will leave the economy stagnant and more people will end up out of work .??


I am not saying go and hammer the Visa .

Tell me about it! :( Was pretty shocked when I looked at sold prices a couple of weeks back on Ebay! Car (2004 A3 Sport) has lost over 30% of it's value this year! But yeah I remember looking at sold prices of new shape Boxsters back in August and was amazed when I saw one at £26k, but now only 3-4 months later I've seen them to go for £16-17k! :eek:

Things look set to get much worse however, hence why I've decided to trade down for now.
