Right been back to the font of information today. Seems that it will be to order only. think we will have to take a mortgage to buy some. I have been promised full spec and a price this week. Suggest you all sit down when i get the price and put a night guard on the van or storage point.

Why how much are you banging on top?
 
Not a lot flynnyman I will keep it down to a small percentage because there is a bag delivery price. To be honest I thing BG are off their rockers.
Just wait for the price and there is a delay with delivery to merchants I am told. TP director says he will not be stocking at their branches or CCF or Keyline Means to them nearly £3k a pallet and they feel it wont sell fast so it will be to order only. I have asked if I can have it on mixed pallets and some freebees to promote it at the begining with casting plasters which are a nightmare as well (only stocked in 12 branches throughout UK) I get direct loads but BG wont supply me direct as we are not big enough to be recognised as merchants.

Flynnyman I have the info for you. Sent the data sheets to Danny to publish. Minimum order I can place is 24 bags ( no price breaks on quantity). Price will be £59.95 per bag + delivery £6.00 + VAT.
Extortion but hoping that they will drop the price or throw a few freebees in as I will get 5% gross on it
 
Danny Dont think there will be many takers . CCF/ Travis/ Keyline tell me they will only buy to order. I want people to tell me if they need it before I even look at it

:RpS_scared: feckinell... 60 quid a bag!!!!!!!:RpS_scared:
 
What will make it interesting is there is not any metal in the plaster :-) Not exactly sure how that works but there is not any metal in it :-)
 
Total BG rip off if you ask me . something wrong when the biggest plaster stockists tell me they will not stock Only take orders for it

£60 is abit of a sticking point.......................:RpS_laugh:.................:RpS_biggrin:............:huh:........:RpS_blushing:....................TAXI
 
Its supply and demand... why have warehouses full of stock when there is not the demand for it....

Your not likely to be skimming whole rooms with it... I should think (speculating) that one bag would do the area required by the client... £55 a bag... if thats what it costs then that is what it costs... Who cares? CHarge it back to the client.. if they want it they will pay for it...

Its very much a specialist material and very much like all the venetian stuff which is also not stocked by big players...

Totally agree - only do one wall in a room - £60 ish - so my labour is xxx plus £60 - I think customer don't mind to pay.

So £260 plus the paint to go over it £20ish
£280 for one wall :RpS_scared: you mad? :-0 Or customer must be :RpS_unsure:
