I am surprised it has not sold as a walk in walk out ongoing concern.
As for the chinese debate that somehow started in these people's joyful retirement plan. It comes down to the Australian's aggressive behaviour. We are aggressive in business and we are aggressive towards each other. We are consumers and we chose where we spend our money. The end user is the one to blame not the chinese, the importer making a couple of hungee on the next container full of goods they sell on ebay. Our wages are very high in comparison to the majority of the western world this is why things seem so cheap when we travel abroad. We are not faithful to each other because of our aggressive nature otherwise we would take the American approach and support our fellow countryman before buying that cheap arse chinese CT.
Dont blame the chinese they are only doing business in the best way they know how. They are only trying to put dinner on the table and get the most out of life before they die like the rest of us.
There are a lot of people in this country who have tried to build CT's and have not done very well at it. It may be because they were bad in business or they did not build a good enough product to take anyone's eye. Who knows maybe they just didn't know how to market their product. The Heaslip's did all of the above but they worked very hard because they catered for a very broad range of the market, from slip on's to custom storage trailers etc.
I wish the Auction was a bit closer
