Don't necessarily need anything collecting, just need to know whether a Company exists and is reputable?
Before I send them £800 of my hard-earned via a route that has no redress if they turn out to be scammers.
I'm only about 20 miles away but know very little about Companies in Ammanford but could ask around to see if any one here knows anything that might be relevant.
They're called
RHT Plant Services
Llwyncelyn Road
Glanaman
Ammanford
The guy breaks mini diggers for parts and advertises on e-bay but won't sell anything of value through e-bay because of the fees. He insists on bank transfer in advance.
At the moment he seems to be the only person in the country who has the part that I need!
If I had a bit more time I'd try to arrange to pick it up in person and pay cash, but it would be a day lost driving up there and back.
He only has +ve feedback on e-bay, but that's mostly as a buyer and selling a few low-value items.
Google finds a few things - again, nothing negative.
I'd just rather have something more "personal" if you know what I mean.
Yes, I understand what you mean. Close to me is a Plant service business but it is a place which seems to deal with the massive forestry type machinery which come on low loaders from all over the country for repair - not quite what you are looking for!! Now I can get personal recommendations for that!!!! I'll ask around though.
Result! My opposite neighbour's son is a good friend of the cousin of that seller and has nothing but good words about him The son has offered to ask any questions directly to the seller on your behalf if you would like him to.
Probably like you, living in such tight-knit rural communities everyone knows everyone else or about them within fifty miles!!
Hope this helps.
Great!
I've asked the seller 3 times to send me a pic of the Slew motor that he has for sale. This is so that I can
a) have some degree of confidence that it actually exists and
b) see that it looks the same as mine.
If I saw a pic, then I would hapilly send him the money, but he keeps promising and then nothing.....
any help gratefully received!
Don't show up on Companies house search, yet quite a bit comes up about the web.
