Ring dealer again or "feck em"

[icanshootwell]

Getting prices for trailers, was only interested in a couple of brands, both sold close by. Got one price which seems a little higher than i would like, so though i would try another dealer who i did purchase a machine off last year. Rang Wednesday morning, spoke to girl on phone, chap you want is with a customer, I will get him to ring you back. Friday morning now and still not heard back from him, do they deserve the business? Its a small family run business as well that i would want to support,they sell good brands as well.

Give them a ring she may not have passed the message on

Watching the variety of assorted heavy machinery that passes here it seems to be the luck of the draw in what you buy. Whatever is for sale in the yard at the time of need.
I dealt with Warwick Trailers once https://www.warwicktrailers.co.uk/trailers/mono-trailers/ . Shambles from delivery onwards only rectified by persistant writing.

Unfortunately you will find it very difficult to spend money with some people nowadays.

i’ve asked my local dealer for a price to swap a 120hp tractor 3 times now.......... I won’t be asking a fourth time!! (and I’ve bought three new tractors from said dealer in last ten years!)

world’s gone mad

She may not of passed it on but there are a lot of dealers who can’t seem to be arsed ringing you back these days....they seem to think you have to do the chasing

I think this is worth another go. Can you get said salesman’s direct number off the website or something?

If you’d spoken to the chap and he’s not rung you back then he doesn’t deserve the business but there could be a good chance the message hasn’t actually been passed on or the scrap of paper with your number on is lost on his desk

There is but I would give them another chance as he's not spoke directly with the salesman.

Yes I would try again then that would be the last time

My father would say to speak to the managing director, mentioning that you'd tried to get an answer from his salesman but he is too busy, adding that he might not know what is going on!

Have you tried to buy a car in the last few years? Farm machinery salesman are a joy in comparison.

I'm so wound up about this at the moment. I ordered a grant funded bit of kit back in January and agreed delivery by the end of February. The manufacturer won't answer his phone and will sporadically respond to messages. The latest instalment is that he has one ready to go in his yard but can't deliver it until he has made up a load to my part of the world (about 50 miles!) unless I want to pay extra for delivery.

My concern is, i wanted to place the order by the end of this week, lead time etc.
I could ring again, then wait to see if he rings me back or not, if he don,t,another day gone then were into next week, there is probably not much in the price anyway, so best to go with a firm that has given me a price and completion date. Just nice to have 2 or 3 prices on the table.

If you got as many calls as they get from gab shites youd understand, call in at the depot

we bought a new golf sv 6 yrs past nov. on the 6th anniversary the salesman rang me asking if i wanted to change. i said " no money" and he said that's what finance is for. i said wasn't changing anyway, maybe next year. so not all salesmen are the same.

 

[bluebell]

my experiences are its rare to get good service ? the more you spend the worst it seems to be ? buy a item from a supermarket have a problem, sorry we will change that, no problem ? phone up about a property? a case in point we sold a small lump of land, first agent we approached to market it got all stuffy when they diddnt want to market it at our price , other one has now sold it ? Toyota , well product is good but the salesmenship ?

I'd be off for it if it's on grant
