if it is with inshops then beware
i had a stall with them and they said it was a 6 month contract after 6 months it just wasn't working so i decided to leave they said i couldn't and i had to give 6 months notice :0
the put the rent up after 1 month and the footfall was terrible the building leaked and it got broke into at least 3 times while i was there and as i was selling mobile phones it was my stall they were after
i lost so much money through that place it was unbelievable thats why i'm always warey of starting a new shop
the boredom of just sitting there watching and waiting for someone just to come in
it was a busy little town but as someone said always the same ppl so you very rarely got anyone new
the amount of ppl who i saw turn up and after 1 month left as it was so bad
inshops didn't give any help and all they wanted was their money for nothing in return except grief

no its definately a market stall ran by local council....but I think he plans to use time to do website and other bits and bobs on the laptop if too bored...but obviously he's hoping that he won't have time for that!! H'mmm.......
thats amazingly expensive if its the local council - mind you warrington, not too far from all those footie players i suppose lol

I thought it was dear too.....but the local shopping centre also charge £300 per month for a wooden cart :-0000!
I think the Almondvale/ McArthur Glen centre in Livingston were charging something like that PER WEEK! - We looked at having a little 'gallery cart' set up; but it was just a complete nonsense - Sickening thing is the number of empty shops in the place... And just as in the example you give the footfall didn't seem to justify it... Not to me at least. -And yet somehow they seem to get the money for them!Originally Posted by TPM
If it's the right product in the right place and the right price - this might be the right form of promotion...
All you can do is wish the guy well and if you get the chance to give him a hand (maybe by bigging him up to others) do that... 'tis a scary wee number though on the face of it.
I agree - the fact that soo many units are empty and yet there are soo many people wnating to try a little business but cant afford to take this step, is just bl00dy stupid..... If its obvious to us, then we can't the big boys see it??? Why couldnt they do a minimal fee / commision deal, at least until someone is established....wouldn't hurt would it!
