RE: (ET) Bill Gunn going out of ET business

["Elie, Larry \(L.D.\)" <lelie ford com>]

Some of Bill's frustration is he is a 'free' asset of info, with only 
modest profit for parts.  
This isn't unique.  I had suggested some options to him about 2 years ago. 
 I don't buy all that 
much from him as I usually fix it myself.  I suggested PayPal, but he 
'heard' that people lost 
money on it all the time.  I suggested an online price list... he claimed 
it was too much trouble.  
What he needs is help; I know someone with a similar sized business that 
pays what I think is a 
whopping 25% (too much in my opinion) to keep a web based price list and 
do all the actual buying 
and selling, checks, PayPal, shipping, etc.  I think that would increase 
his sales, and improve his 
time.  But I don't think he is amable to that idea, as my smaller 
suggestions fell quickly by the 
wayside.

Was very sorry to hear from Bill Gunn this morning that this will be the 
last week that he will take orders for ET supplies.  He says his costs 
for storage etc. make it too expensive to continue.  If you know you 
will be needing anything, I suggest that you call him ASAP.
