Danny King Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Moan time Fed up with customer who come and say "I just bought this car key from fleabay and they told me that I could take it to any Keycutter and get it cut and programmed for a couple of quid" Bloody Cheapskates, My answer is certainly but the price will be the same as if you had bought the key from ourselves v Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hibsjo(SCO) Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 We dont! If someone turns up with something bought off Ebay which needs programming we refuse to do it aint running the risk of damaging the car as we would be liable. carry on!

Guest lee. Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 We get lots of customers in with Non Chipped Car Keys , telling us they had managed to find the Key for there Car ( mailnly older vehicles) on eBay and only paid £5 for it ,and would we cut it for them , many are surprised when we tell them we have either got the Key in stock or could have got one for them within a few days , and would have only charged them £5 anyway , we charge £3 to cut if Customers own Car Blank , but we offer no Money Back Gaurantee if it does not either fit or work . Also started to get Customers in with Disney and Simpson Keys ,which we also stock ourselves , again we charge £2 to cut them with the same No comeback warranty. We both buy and sell on eBay , under several different iD's, a great place to trade if you know what you are doing , often seen instructions telling prospective buyers of keys to take blanks to there local well known High St Shoe Repairers ( no names menTioned) , where they will be glad to cut them FOC.

slippy Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 I'm the same as with any broken key that comes in. No guarantee. Why should we guarantee someone else's key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
