Log prices will have too go up yes no

[eggsarascal]

why have u gone up £10 from January, u must have processed and seasoned ur logs pre Jan vat increase, so ur only increase will be extra vat on ur diesel bill

 

my local bought their beer before the vat increase, but guess what, a pint of beer was more expensive tonight than last night:thumbdown:

Yes, but they are collecting the VAT for the government, the VAT they paid when they bought the beer would have been claimed back already.

 

People forget that the VAT does not belong too the seller.

Why should he not put his price up. When he buys cord wood tommorrow he will pay more and not see it back for nine months thats an extra operating cost. If he waits till June to put the price up will the public be falling over themselves to buy. No they will wait till they have 4 logs left on christmas eve then haggle.

your right 18 stoner, but you must know trying to explain increses like these arent easy to explain to the customer.

 

Vat gone up so the price of logs price has gone up by £5 its to cover the fuel Im not making any money im losing it

i can understand that happening for nxt years sales, but cant really see any need for large increase to cover any vat on diesel.

 

the higher the price goes, the more likelyhood of imports flooding into the UK or ur customers start using cheaper softwood options. Mr Arranwoodfuels must be licking his lips and thinking about going national shortly.
