  1. i do feel for the brokers really i do i think its very hard to get out of your chair get a key from a hook grunt `over there` then manage to raise your arm and point in a direction you thought it was then all the effort needs a sit down again, then theres the effort of saying when you come back i dont think they will accept it ill ring them later and somehow forget to get back to you
  2. its not just builders that need to update brokerages should do this daily dunno how many times ive rung up and theve said thats sold 6 months ago
  3. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 10 posts to view.
  4. i must be unlucky then getting the ones who always try it on i dont mind paying a fair price but when the boat needs new elecs and a refit or other major work then hey cmon are you going to trust a broker (who normaly have a chandlers attached) then they lose the buisness false economy so cmon brokers get ya act together think long term not sort term in ya pocket profit
  5. theres lived in and used and thats ok i understand that but why do brokers expect you to pay so much for crap, i dont mind doing work on it but hey cmon there having a laugh thats wat im talking about wats the point in telling you lies when they know your getting a survey done
  6. is it just me or am i setting my sights to high looking at second hand boats and expecting too much like no stinky smells, electrics that work, pictures that are current on brokers websites and not taken 10 years ago when stuff was new (false advertising or wat) boats advertised as ready to go to find that the engine needs repairing maybe im being to picky and want to much for my money after all thousands of hard earned pounds grow on trees
  7. looks like i need a few plans for internal fit out stoll cant find a reasonable second hand boat any one got any or a full list of equipment to start me off
  8. thanks will look at that
  9. went to see cheshire narrowboats today the guy chris was ok but seemed to want to standardise wat i wanted, i may look again here the only thing i thought odd was no full length rubbing straif they seemed solid enought though
  10. mmmmmm death doom and gloom then, i live in a house and the gas, electic, water and rates come to three times that its a expensive as you make it if you maintain on the go i reckon its a hell of a lot cheaper to live afloat and also you get the benefit of doing it. moan and groan is wat i hear all the time give it a go im going to
  11. so to get back to it anyone bought a cheshire narrowboats boat from lymm
  12. can you tell me which ones these are please i will make a special visit, i have been to a few now and mostly i feel that the brokers are putting to high a price on the boats
