Greetings to ya...and fingers crossed for thursday

Hi Donna you found us then!
Met up with some of your mates at Farmyard.
Dave spilled the beans .Sorry
Try here for the screen. Remember to add the VAT.

Do Trojan's prices not include VAT?

I'd be surprised, as I understand that it is a legal requirement for prices to include VAT if the majority of the sales are to consumers rather than to the trade.

Even if the web site does include a disclaimer along the lines of "Prices shown do not include UK VAT tax, which is payable by residents of the European Union. This will be added automatically at the end of the check out process.", that is a breach of the 1987 Consumer Protection Act.

From the DTI's own code of practice...

Hi there,

I'm in Edinburgh so if you get the bike give us a shout and we can go for a ride.

I was only making Baroness Orczy aware of the price change as she hits the checkout.
My first order from Trojan, caught me by surprise. I didn't notice the bottom of the page.
A few others have been caught out as well. I have and will continue to use Matt's business when and if I need stuff.

Not really relevant, though, is it? If he is breaking the law (which seems to be the case) doing something which you said has caught you and others, that's not on. IMO.

That used to really piss me off at my local Kwak shop when I was an impecunious student. I'd ring them up to find out the price of something like a rear sprocket (with teeth - luxury ). I'd then scrape together enough cash, get to the shop, get the fecking sprocket, and then find I didn't have enough cash cos they didn't quote the VAT I've not really liked bike shops ever since

Hello neighbour,

I'm getting a 57 Uly delivered from 'the west side' in the next week or so.........!

Mrs P who rides a BMW F650GS/Factory Lowered liked the look of the CG at Edinburgh Harley when we were there a few weeks ago. It'd be great to hear how you get on with your bike when you get it.....!

FP.

Glasgow here but work in Livi so you may see my STT blatting about

.....failing that you may see a man waving enthusiastically from a blue plastic vauxhall as he forgets he's not on the bike
