Dave the locksmith Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Don't see how its untapped, every tom dick n harry now cuts, sells and programs keys. When I started programing Fords for Ford main dealers in 1995 /96 I was getting about £220 a car, when I finished roadside automotive work (in 2012 ish) a local chap was doing it for £50. To many people diluting the small pot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rapidlocks Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 yup including my local greetings card shop , that offers clone keys , obd keys that their skp900 covers as well as house keys , so you can pop in for a birthday card a fathers day card , a new front door key and a spare car key in just one visit and still have enough to buy a party balloon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rapidlocks Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 sadly in some areas its our own trade suppliers undercutting us in an attempt to dominate retail market as well , even one of our diagnostic suppliers is now undercutting their trade customers on retail jobs on a national basis , the race to the bottom is hotting up.

kobblers Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 I'm so glad we never moved into the transponder, et al, market, especially as people constantly moaned at £5.99 for a normal car key a few years ago. Rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamparker Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 I am the opposite Rick, we where one of the first to jump in i think i had my first cloner in 1996 and it has been a steep learning curve, i bought the AD100 and it more than earned it's money then others started to get involved so we only clone now approx 10-20 a week but we have had some cracking jobs from cloning. We supply Scania GB on account and they passed our details to a transport company in Cambridge. One Saturday they rang before and turned up with 40 keys to clone at £45.00 each that was a very good day. kobblers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
