Hi all, having contemplated various options I'm going to keep it simple
How much does it cost?It'll be £redacted a metre to buy - full disclosure I am an enthusiast who got into this because I wanted the cloth for my own car, I'm not really interested in selling the cloth for a profit, so this'll be a cheap introductory price, and any that doesn't sell quickly I intend to pass on to Beta Boyz to sell, which I would expect to be more than my own - certainly if I was doing this as a business I would be asking for more
How do I pay?Bank transfer or if we're doing it in person, cash would also be fine.
When do I pay?If I'm shipping it to you, it'll be payment in advance, in person we can do payment once you've seen the cloth and are happy with it.
How do I get the cloth?Either
- Collect in person - opportunities to do this either at the meetup in Devon, or from my address in Bristol
- Courier via Parcelforce 48 hour shipping, insured for the full value. Insurance makes it relatively costly e.g. £40 if ordering 9 metres of cloth. If you want to go without insurance it'll still be tracked but only covered for £100, costing £10.32 at your own risk
Sounds good, how do I arrange it?Whatsapp or call me - 07734 487775 is my mobile number
How much cloth will I need?I'm working on Eric's earlier recommendation of 7-9 metres for a full interior
Can I get some for just the front seats?Sure, but I would really recommend doing the whole interior to ensure a good colour match - even the best condition original fabric will have faded significantly by now
How does this compare to the original cloth?The pattern and colour is practically identical to the original, the wool is less frayed, for want of a better word than the original type - so the pattern will appear slightly crisper than the original. The cloth is wool over a cotton base rather than the pure wool of the original, meaning it is more durable and should be less prone to pulls or wear.
What if I'm not happy with the cloth?I think you will be, but if you aren't, provided it's as it arrived, if you pay to send it back, I'll refund you.
Bank transfer doesn't give me the best protection as a buyer, what assurances do I have you won't run off with my money?You'll have my mobile number, my address, and a bunch of people who have met me, seen the cloth and know I'm genuine - if I run off with your money, you'll know exactly where to send the boys in blue / your mates with a crowbar
Edit : additional question's
How wide is the cloth?The roll is 1.3m wide, so if you order 9m of cloth, that's 9m by 1.3m
Can you ship internationally?Should be doable but insured international shipping is prohibitively expensive (e.g. £300 to australia) so as with uninsured uk shipping, you'll need to be happy to take that risk.
