just trawing on e/bay flea/bay and came across this, Item number: 190519756852

wonder what the real price would be ?
 
obviously it will never be £100 with all the little extras like powerflushing etc.
 
hmmmmmmmmmmmm think what about the custards that say if /when u get done early uve not been here 8 hrs im not paying you the full money i always advetise works starting from and not proper priced as people allways put u down as far as they can and say thats what ur add says
 
So...You pay for 1 days labour, he's got the boiler hanging there, no flue, gas pipe held in with one clip and the alarm bell goes for the end of the day.. what happens next??? Sounds a risky venture to get involved in IMHO.
 
Yes it is remember the name (cheap central heating)
Lives up to name anyway lol
 
hope he is not on here?. even so, dissapointing.imo.

i have just done some figures from his prices and the boiler install is based on 2.5 hrs work.

but still supplies and fits sime band b boilers according to the web site?.

if you are on here, pm me?.
 
allen,

you must know a secret or two,

how does this work, is it by numbers and quantity or just allways extras?.

education please!!!

thing is, i cant see many ppl using a engineer that advertises on ebay.. he must be so desperate for work , maybe he needs the money to feed his horse lol.. joking aside tho i think ppl advertising stupid prices give us all a bad name... if he does it for that he can sub off me ha
 
i just seen his website... New Boiler Leeds A Rated Combi Boiler Fully Fitted £899????????/ wow id like to see it. does anyone else here charge so little?
 
Maybe he's hijacked a lorry full of boilers and kept them all for himself.......899% profit on each install....not bad for 2.5 hours work.......no doubt he can do 2/3 a day so he can feed his stable full of horses.

I was charging about £900 for a boiler change and powerflush £100 is mad. Some labourers here are on £90 a day, why bother with all that extra hassle for £10. You have a van to run, insurance, tools, courses to go on. Maybe I'm just greedy but if I am I would of picked an easier job to be greedy at lol

being ex BG he probably makes his money up on the system flush at £700 a throw as we all know the system has to be flushed for the manufacturers to accept the guarantee
 
This is crazy you can make 3 times that in a day in leeds sometimes if you advertise well and get a good rep! and thats not even on gas work.
 
Any follow up on this REDSAW? Did you pm him any news just being nosey Thanks
 
Sorry if you guys feel that my prices are too low. As a new start up business i have had to keep my prices low to get the work.
I guarantee that all my jobs are installed to a very high standard.
I always advise on fitting a magnabooster filter and i make a little on that.
But it is true i do install the ferroli 31C for £899 , I buy the boiler for £600 and then have about £50 in materails.
This means that i earn £250 for the day.
