How can you sign a deal and not have towers in? I would have thought the minute contract is signed with a venue machine would be in next day, I know my customers wouldnt be happy to sit & wait. :blahblah:

have to be careful with contracts, if self written - often not enforceable, landlords move on, etc. the cost of pursuing the legal route if contract broken is excessive for the sake of a sweet tower site. Not a criticism just an observation.

Hi Sweet fix,

Thanks for the offer but ive only just got them..lol…

Don’t think I’ll have a problem with stock ect as I will make sure I have enough to last….and have lots of storage space.
As regards to cash flow shouldn’t be a problem as there is myself and another “investor” who is semi-retired with lots of time on his hands.
That’s good that you have more sites ready and that they will wait for you too,
There are plenty of second hand venders on eBay ect you may be able to get a deal there or I’m sure some 1 on here can sell you some
If it all goes **** up then I will call you…lol…
regards
Ben….
