    you go to the trouble of helping people, only to discover they are trying to sell you the item you are recommending they buy :confused:

    I hope someone deletes this thread...and bans this timewaster :(

    Hi Tom,

    I have removed the op's link to their website fom their post......As I have already said I have referred it to abuse and it is up to them to decide whether or not the whole thread is deleted.

    Personally, ie I'm not speaking as a board guide here, I don't think other helpful members deserve to lose their posts just because one user has taken the oportuntity to use mse to advertise their website.

    Thanks for all of your suggestions, I must own up, I know this is an excellent web site, but it is not designed for advertising products. However, when your a small company owner, all marketing is good.

    I would like to thank Lorian who has busted me twice now.

    Trying to trick people into buying your products will just annoy them.

    You'll generally find the best way to market stuff on the net is to offer real discounts or to run some competitions.

    If your product was BS/Insurance approved it would be more marketable. I can't see too many people with approved 5 lever mortice deadlocks trusting it.

    Actually, what use is a safe full of keys if you lock yourself out of the house?

    Does he sell a smaller safe to lock the keys to the safe in?
