So "that's cheap" I thought and decided to have a look at their feedback, and found lots of these mudguards have been sold to very happy and satisfied kettle owners in the UK.
The price also had a "make an offer" option, so I offered £150 (Alan would be proud
) and it was accepted. Just waiting for it to be delivered now and I'll let everyone know how good it is when it gets here.Writing this reminded me though about a clearance sale that a long gone local Suzuki dealer had in the 1990's. They had all their old stock on display outside the shop with a sign saying "everything must go, 50 pence per item".
So I had a good look and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw a new rear mudguard for a kettle, which I quickly grabbed for the said 50p.
There was nothing wrong with the one on my kettle so I sold it on to a fella at the Stafford show for £10, a profit of 1000 percent, I think. But if I'd kept it in the attic for 20 odd years I could sell it now for 20 times that much
Hindsight eh?
they're "Dragon scales" right!!! However, after some thought, I will accept "Black Marlin" or "Swordfish", but definitely not "Haddock" or "Cod".
