Mike at Vauxhall Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 Hope I'm not coming across as someone who is "teaching "grandma how to suck eggs". But, it's great when a customer comes in with a postbox key branded L & F, or Renz. You know, quick look in the books, key ided, and ordered if necessary .But when a customer comes in with a cheap Chinese one, and you think" I'll check the book, but I'm sure bloody Pingpong industries isn't there! This is how I've dealt with these situations. I've ordered in a fairly wide selection of key blanks, all the most popular, and divided them into right and left handed. Fairly quick comparison of either the right or left keys to the Chinese blank, find the closest one. So far hasn't let me down in the past 18 or so months. Keep notes, had to order these blanks by the 2/5. So I charge £6 a key, two for £10. If anyone thinks I've got some blanks in my postbox range missing,I would love to know.

Enjoyed this! And guess what? Against all the odds, I actually found a stash of "Sanjin" blanks upstairs! Absolutely perfect match in every way for customer's key. Damned if I know where they came from but they're absolutely perfect. Thanks very much for all the pics, will make up a guide and get some blanks sorted and organised away ready...
