  2. Many Thanks for your kind words. It was great to be able to hold an Exhibition, in a new Venue too. We have learnt from the day, so there will be some changes for 2023 and beyond. Already have booked three layouts, for whom it will be their FIRST ever exhibition. More to add for 2023 and 2024 and obviously beyond. Our Thanks to all that exhibitied and paid to enter.
  3. UPDATE: Poppys Woodtech have agreed to have a Trade Stand, whilst not the same Ranges still a worthy Trader to support.

  8. 17 September 2022 at ACL in Rayleigh Road, Hutton, Shenfield, Essex. 15 Layouts, and Trade Support (including CAVALEX) with demonstrations from Club Members and EMGS - with Refreshments and a Tombola. Small Car Park on Site, around 10 minute walk from SHENFIELD railway station. By the way Richard (in the image mentioned) is a happy person and a good modeller - perhaps the photographer caught him off guard.
  9. Sounds similar to the Blue Light Scheme - which has been in operation for some time now.
  10. I understand Retailers can still seek to return stocks purchased this year, or as the note states Legally continue to sell to UK customers. IMHO it is around the potential to ingest MEKO, I suspect the level of solvent may have a quicker detrimental impact - but then who drinks paint or paints it directly onto their skin.
  11. If you mean the increased length BIN code use, then this will impact most if not all Online and Mail Order sales - even within bricks and mortar outlets. Seemingly, from the communications sent out to retailers. There could be an issue if you do not use one of the larger process providers - such as WorldPay - with their terminals and back office combined services. Not sure how it may happen if you use Square, SumUp or any of the other many providers. The changes - so they say - is to make purchases more secure and to reduce fraudulent card use. A little like the more checks now made on Contactless purchases since the £100 limit was enacted.
  12. I was not mentioning a VAT Rate change, this was about increasing prices of old stock to the same level of new stock. It is obvios that a VAT Rate increase will lead to a higher price being charged and the tax collected be higher.
  13. Not sure on that, as the Legal Contract is based on each item, the Sale Price being agreed by both Parties. So in this case you can have different prices. What you cannot undertake is to sell at a higher price than the label - unless the Purchaser has agreed to pay a higher price - again made a Contract, especially if the higher price includes an extra service such as wrapping. Though the issue on incorrect price labelling against charge does mainly cause an issue when using ePOS, which is why supermarkets normally give a higher Refund should such an issue arise - as a form of compensation.
  14. Then consider that a One Outlet operation has to take the MOQ, which may well be 6 items of the same product. Many would love to be able to just order in singles, but that is not how it happens in the Retail World. Not only that but with say points you need to try and keep a good number to hand - otherwise a Customer wanting multiples of the same product may go elsewhere.
  15. Not sure that statement applies to all model shops. Without bar codes and EPOS you can operate various tiers - which reflect the RRP at the different price points. The limitations of EPOS - unable to have different prices for the same barcode - reduces the effectiveness. As it is not just the Sales that it works against it also gives a skew to Stock Valuation for End of Year accounting as it is not a true reflection. In addition if a supplier offers a reduction in Trade Price the stock value cannot be a true value on EPOS, as the value will be the same for all purchases using the same barcode identity. Each to their own, at the day end.
