Looks like someone has been holding out on us and trying to claim all that lovely

for himself.

^^^ - Do you create a fresh new website for each of these or are they ok with "the website is undergoing maintenance (along with the phone system)?"
How comprehensive does a price list need to be?
Sorry for all the questions - still learning.

I have one webpage for one character that is a holding page on a webs.com sub-domain - for my other characters, I just ignore the request and see if they push it and then give an excuse.

My pricelists range from a PDF full of watch prices that I grabbed off the web to a simple list of 5 products with a description and price.

Offer for oil on it's way to this lad...

I find that a website helps sell the bait if you can provide the link even if they don't ever go there or if just points to a "under construction" page. I have two websites (also at webs.com) just so I can attack lads from two fronts.

The simpler your price list the simpler the bait. One of my companies only sells one product in one size. The other sells a different product but in either 2' or 4' sizes.

You want to add touches to make it look real but don't need to get caught up in the details. They aren't at all concerned about the product or it's authenticity (B8er's stuff proves that repeatedly).

I've sent this guy a tour offer. Hoping he bites. At least the 90 minutes spent creating a website won't be wasted. I can always use it on another lad. This is only the second bait I've started and it's my first cc bait, so holding thumbs that I don't make too many mistakes and spoil my cover.

Does it matter what kind of offer I send him? I'm now starting to wonder whether sending him a tour offer was the right move?

Constructive criticism is always appreciated.

^^ Wait and see what he says....

Price list sent. I don't have a website.

My price list is two pages and contains some items that don't exist, some that are deliberately misspelled, and some that require the lad to provide parameters that anyone actually needing the part would know, but lads do not.

Sorry to double post - has anyone had a reply from Mr Brett yet? I've poked him but still nothing yet?

Mr.B replied asking for price sheet so I had to remind him that we only have the one product. Have not heard back from him yet on actually ordering anything....

Not at all. I posted at SW knowing your long nose would be sniffing all over it and would save me the time of posting it here. Cool

I received an email a few hours ago from Bruce...he really mangled his order and I asked him to revise it.

He did and I'm going to contact his shipping agent tomorrow.

He's asked me for a website.

Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2014 8:55 am

He asked me for 100 each of thee sizes of gears, but didn't specify the material or the inside diameter. I can't quote the price without the material. I was out yesterday getting dental work done and was in no condition to answer when I got back, but I should be able to answer today when it dawns on the west coast.

He just repeated his order, still without specifying the material.
