out of intrest how do you value a window cleaning round ? i heard it was 4 times the  value of work you do a month but aint to sure , not selling just want a piece of mind

[gto]

any where from 3 to 10 i have seen them for, depends how greedy you are.
and if the work is any good in the right area it will sell.

"Greedy"?  Where does that come into it?  Get the best price you can; if someone will pay ten times, then it's a fair price.

anything more than 5x and your taking the p@ss

If someone will pay it, it's fine.

I assume that in your rather odd world view, the seller underpricing it is in some way OK, whereas getting a higher price isn't.

Remember, whoever buys it doesn't have to if they don't want to. If the price is too high, no-one will buy it.  Other than that, all bets are off.

It's only worth what someone is willing to pay

What do you say then to the guy who comes on here having just paid 10x for underpriced newly canvassed work thats not compact.
  Someones had his pants down thats what. But he had the money and he could afford it,would you have advised him not to buy then perfect windows or would your conscience be overidden by your admiration for the seller?

I say nothing at all to him.  I would have no admiration for either of them, except for both of them having done a deal with which they must both be happy, or they wouldn't have done the deal at all.  Both of them have a free choice.  Seller no more has to sell at a given price than a buyer has to buy at a given price.

have to agree with with vin on this one, get what you can, and pay as little as you can simple business really

And looking at it from the other side, sell what you can and sell it for as much as you can.

If the two prices overlap, do the deal.

yes that is what I meant

I dont agree with either of you,your both  talking through your wallets and you`d be the first to winge if something you wanted became suddenly unaffordable due  to gullible buyers pushing the price up.

sean when I bought my house before it all went wrong I paid top dollar for it, I could but it now for less,

last time I bought work I paid x1 for it as it was under priced rubbish, I have never sold work but if I did I would take as much as I could get, I often give it away never mind sell it, but something is worth what someone is prepared to pay there is no rules or guide lines or going rates, fair play to someone that can get that much but I wouldn't pay it. but if someone is prepared to pay so be it.

You're obsessed with only seeing this from the side of the buyer.

If the two individuals swapped places and the one of them bought the other's round for half the monthly turnover, would you feel sorry for the seller?  Or would you predict that I'd "be the first to whinge if something I wanted to sell became suddenly too cheap due to hard-nosed buyers pushing the price down"?

And the rabbi said to the youth "look out that window and what do you see". The youth says"lots of people",and now says the rabbi,"look in that mirror and what do you see","i see only myself",says the youth.
"The glass is the same but see how the addition of some  silver has changed what you see",says the rabbi.

[mikecam]

 i think its best to work out where the round is, and who is doing it. Then go and canvass it, say the window cleaner is thinking of packing up !!! No extra to pay !!!

Good, that's cleared it up. Nothing like a pointless parable to clarify the economics of dealmaking.
