Credit where credit is due
You may remember I posted that everytime I had a delivery from Hurleys there were smashed pots at the bottom of some of the boxes, this happened on 3/3 deliveries.
Hurleys suggested that I purchase a pallet of stock (or part of) but to a small timer like me the outlay was too much. They suggested that they could invoice me for half now and half when I had used the first half up.
I am pleased to say that I have done this and the delivery arrived yesterday with no problems. As agreed I have paid half now and will ring them when I have used this.
Two things, Excellent business sense on their part as I have stayed with them and there is now an appreciation and loyalty towards them for giving me stock on credit on trust.
I would be the first to comment if things were not right so I feel it only fair to say WELL DONE HURLEY'S

Re: Credit where credit is due
I am guessing that is probably a one off from Hurley's, non the less that is a bloody good service and shows great commitment from the supplier to help out guys with fewer machines. Well done Hurleys.

Re: Credit where credit is due

Re: Credit where credit is due
Hi, I am pleased for you.
For anyone just starting out, this is a great idea. Very thoughtful too. Thinking outside of the box- that is what is needed to get an operator up to a sustainable level. Good call Paul and Rob

Re: Credit where credit is due
Don't forget guys they did not do this to help my credit, they did it as the delivery always got damaged by the courier. I would not have expected them to help me if it was just a case of I cant afford to buy the stock, no business in their right mind would do that in these circumstances. The crux of this is I had a problem, they came up with a solution and took a gamble (on me) at the same time. This will pay over and over as my ethics are such that I will not forget this.
