Certainly nothing to do with the name being in full. With no disrespect to Dominic (most of you know I like helping our younger members get started in business) just experience of the type of question, products involved and the response.

Anyway Dominic, please don't let that put you off being on here and seeking advise, I am sure you have a lot you can contribute too

I first met you Ben in the discussion about the log cabins and I was a fair way through debating that with you when I finally clicked and actually felt I had been a bit mean to you as I hadn't realised straight off - Hence PMing you. I don't know if I would have known if I had been around when you first joined. *shrugs*

Hope you saw my second reply in your running a business from home thread

Ha...but NO ONE has guessed that im only 21...

I think it is great that some of our younger members are so involved....

Hey,

Don't worry, you weren't mean to me in the other thread, what use is advice if it isn't true. I appreciate the opinions of you and the rest of the members here and will accept any of them ,

Cheers,
Ben

Great attitude Ben, and not one that I always associate with 'younger' people.

It can be quite hard to take the 'harder' advice of older, jaded, cynics and sometimes experience doesn't mean you know the 'right' answer.

For example, if you post a 'brilliant' idea, I suspect half the 'oldies' here might give you all its negatives when in actual fact you may have your finger on something which we (god I hate saying 'we' in this context) haven't a clue about.

Thanks Cathy, I must admit that my attitude has changed somewhat since I first started buying and selling. I thought I could do no wrong, how wrong I was. Now I will make sure to check through and thoroughly research all business plans and ventures.

Still got a long way to go though before I can class myself in the same league as most of the members on here.

Thanks,
Ben

IP2 Weee compliant is regarding the manufacturer of the product, not the retailes

[Indizine]

I found this:

Distributors who supply new EEE intended for use by private households will attract an obligation under the UK WEEE regulations. Examples of such distributors include but are not limited to:

• wholesalers
• high street retailers
• mail order sellers
• internet sellers

As Indizine has correctly pointed out, sadly not the case my friend.
