Huge amount of Mongoose gear on ebay. £30K or best offer
-
That's one way of shifting leftover stock, hopefully a serious buyer comes forward @Tom!
-
Doubt it will sell, but at 26p to list was worth a shot.
Definitely some resale value in the Junior kit, just haven't got the time to sell it myself.
-
No harm in trying, like you say it's only 26p after all!
-
Interesting to see the trade costs, wonder if this is in line with other companies?

The listed trade price is pretty much universal across the industry.
Large volume retailers, early payers may get further discount. But the book trade price calculation is standard across the industry.
-
Really tempted by this but don't want to be left with loads of old stock I can't shift :o
-
Would you split it up into smaller orders? May be interested in a bunch on the junior gear and kitbags
-
Not significantly smaller, sadly. Maybe down into 3's or so, but not much further.
-
3 or 4 pallets?
Was worth asking
-
Yeh 3/4 pallets. No harm in asking, in fact a few months ago would definitely taken you up on the offer of splitting even smaller. but right now storage costs are rather expensive hence willing to sell in bulk for a big discount.
-
Kit's back available, but at a big discount, as the last sale (to someone in the industry) didn't go ahead in the end.

Does this mean individually or still job lot Tom?

Give us a shout when the site is back up and running :)
EDIT: Checked the bay and its a joblot again..

Still job lot. Personally won't be selling individually again - your best hope is that someone purchases all of it and re-sells!
-
Yeah, I'd definitely be interested in a rebel. Lovely shape that
-
Interesting reading that excell spreadsheet in the listing. Never realised how much markup went on to equipment! WOW!

Does that signify the end of Mongoose then @Tom ?
-
I don't know, it doesn't seem like that much. When was the last time anyone paid RRP for cricket stuff or anything for that matter? Trade seems to be ~50% of RRP, knock off 20% down to a normal selling price... then you got overheads to the seller, stock left on shelves at the end of the year... that 50% margin suddenly gets eaten up
Some in the industry would have you believe there's no profit in it.
