Not all the stuff was perfect by any means but for large scale purchases of "reading copy" quality common items that a UK based buyer can acquire cheaply and and in bulk they were good deals. Even allowing for larger than average postage charges the buy price usually makes the deals more than viable. Most of cougs business is based on this.

Is it possible he treats his British customers differently than his foreign ones, knowing that the second group will likely have less recourse/impact on his business when he screws them?

killjoy32 wrote:yeah we did too - i was sat right at the front with my daughter, commenting on smelly some of the folk were. i didnt see you however (not that i would have know WHO to look for of course )Al
lawrenson wrote:We were probably just behind you. The Missus bid on quite a few things (tho only won one - it was more to help the auction along a bit, as it was rather sad).I reckon, in the right market, that boxing picure would have been worth 1K+, not the £55 it went for.Cheers,malc
