Anyone want an order for 12 of each? Price is mostly already set fairly low (£3.74 + vat each plus delivery) so upto you if it suits you. I'll just pass the customer details over. Needs to be responded to quite quick though.

Don't know yet, haven't replied to the person asking for them. You interested?

I would be, but just noticed that they will 'more than likely' require a VAT invoice and we're not VAT registered .................. yet.

I doubt they will care if they get a vat invoice, just don't add 20% and they will be happy. Very few companies care about if your vat registered. In fact, when they see my prices some get miffed that there is vat to be added. As long as they get an official receipt it should be fine.

prices may be a little low but I think that jobs like these may open up more doors, but - just to confirm. I only use 11oz mugs and are the mousemats standard ones?

If all ok them please PM me more details :-)

11oz is fine. Most customers would know the difference between 10/11. Customers details on the way.

Hi Andrew - was just curious - don't you do subli stuff or how you got the order as I'm one of those still fighting for them :-O

No, I still do mugs and lots of other stuff. It's complicated, but basically I try to supply just trade orders these days. I have an older website that brings lots of enquiries that I can't really be doing anymore. Most of the time I just don't reply now but I feel a bit bad doing that especially if someone seems desperate. I turned off most of the avenues that they get to the site but it is still live online.

hmmmm....would you mind letting me have the address then I can take a look? Would you consider selling it on?

I don't really put my info on websites as it is open to all or divulge what we do either. I don't mind discussing the subli side of things but when it comes to business then I clam up. Might be paranoia but it seems to be my natural reaction. I don't think it would be a good idea for me to sell the site either as it would then get someone else on the way to becoming my competitor. Haven't really worked out what to do with it but will probably eventually just turn it off. Goes against the grain as a lot of work wnet into everything surrounding it.

I wouldn't call it paranoia Andrew - I'd call it pride!

I'm 'damn' sure that once I build my little empire up I'm not going to show the secrets to everyone as it would have been my hard work that got it there in the first place.

That's it kind of Adam. These are my little stepping stones.

no worries, just thought I'd enquire in case you would be letting some business go... ;-) no harm in trying!
