[QUOTE="Guy, post: 6353960, member: 145"] so ... weird one this ... A few months ago I supplied a new 3m set of discs to a contactor “doon sooth” I agreed to deliver FOC so dropped them off at their premises, new sheds going up, new machinery everywhere . I was told payment would be made later that day and I’d obtained a few references so was “reasonably” satisfied. A week later, no payment. I called the owner of the company’s debt politely reminded him, he then told me “we pay our invoices at the end of the month” So 6 weeks later, still no payment. I made another polite call only to be told they don’t have any money, they are terribly sorry and I can collect the discs at my leisure (180 miles away) of course sh!t happens so I go and collect the discs. I arrive there and they have been used, they are covered in soil and mud and here is plastic wrapped around 60% of the bearings ..... obviously I’m livid but what is the forums opinion ? I’m going to charge for collecting and cleaning but what about a nominal hire charge ?? [/QUOTE]
