Hunter woodburning stoves..........thieving gits!
 
Just had an e-mail back from the above in response to mine about 3 weeks ago asking if I could have some more glass clips and screws.

These are smal pieces of steel about 15mm long with stainless screws, that hold the glass into the doors.
Last time I needed some, 18 months ago, they were free.

Today, they want 70p per clip, plus a £5 P&P charge!!!!
Thast's an outlay of nearly £10 for six screws and six little metal pieces!

Thieving cnuts, I'll make my own!

Whilst I agree with you, many companies have a minimum order charge, so £10 isn't too bad. It just about covers the processing, packing, printing etc...

When I worked for a company and someone rang up for a small magnet (about 10p worth) I had to tell them the minimum order charge was £100!!!!

I often people a couple free as 'samples', depending on thier attitude :)

I would hardly say they're ripping you off.

You was lucky to get them free last time.

People expect companies to work for free these days.

I.e 6 clips £4.20 employee being payed £5.20 p/h say 15mins to do it £1.30 , eat. £1.50 for delivery.

That's £7 not including packing and labelling costs if they do that.

You had it all free last time under a Labour government.

Now the tories are in power you have to pay.

It ain't rocket science. :razz:

Yep, glass is £23 a bit and £5 delivery. I've broken one already with an over-large piece of wood, (nearly typed "log" there, but knew it would attract the funny men:rolleyes:)
