Well I can honestly say that the entrance makes impression from pictures, it must be the best vac shop entrance I have ever seen  :thumbsup:, and I would never think in million years that someone will put so much effort and to this,we all have different interests in life and after finding this forum to help sort my vac I would never believed the dedication/time people put towards the hobby/ business, I would like to wish you all the best on your grand opening and good luck.
Shame you so far away otherwise would pop in even just the get filter  :icon_nod:

Very nice,

Now I see you have a mat in your entrance... Where did you get that from? I'd be very interested in one of those!

A few months ago from someplace I found online. About £120 each. I'll dig out the link if you need it.

Thanks, Ade. I am pretty passionate in everything I do. Do it properly or not at all is my motto. Same as we try to do with our machines. Four months ago that building stood empty and very damp; it has been empty since about 2011. Its a great space, on a good busy road. It wouldn't suit every business; but it suits us. It has swallowed money - as very old buildings do - the last few months, but I am happy with the result. If the local people support us, and I suspect they will as they were not long ago campaigning against a proposed mosque on the site, we will keep the wolf from the door.

That looks fantastic! Even the dc04's look new!
Best wishes for the grand opening.

Ta very much! The local radio station has been pumping it all day. They are happy I got Gordon Burns on board. He is a pretty big name in broadcasting in and around Manchester. And to anyone who used to watch the Krypton Factor on TV.

Mighty fine entrance you have there. Like your signage. Very nice place you have there.

First impressions count don't they? I spent half today standing outside staring at it with a coffee in my hand.

Lovely! That looks incredible ;D Love the layout too :thumbsup:

I'll put the back half in the trade room. You will love the parts stores more.  :-*

That looks amazing! Must pop up for a browse and to get in your way this year!

I keep telling you to come visit us! We have fab coffee from our spiffy German machine, and the famous Curry Mile nearby. Hotels nearby are pretty cheap. We had Americans over not long ago - I am sure you can manage to visit the frozen north sometime.  ;D

Oh wow. You are so incredibly lucky to own that URL. I must admit, I'm a bit envious.

If you watch MVACS video, the front display of his store advertises his website, dysonparts.com

We have dysonspares.com and quite a few others as well, collected over the years. More to stop other people having them than anything. None were especially cheap, and one was cannily registered in Russia by a Russian web guy, but after some Cyrillic searching, we found the guys number, and Olga called him up and did the deal, in Roubles, in the lingua franca.

So, what we have achieved in a couple of days is nothing short of miraculous. We are in and pretty much organised. Late this afternoon everything was looking quite sorted. People are rolling in with service work already. The coffee machine is working (:coffee:), there were floors being mopped and frantic Seboing going on (is that a new Verb?) late this afternoon. Not to mention flowers being arranged. The florist a few doors up even donated some red ribbon for the grand opening. We are fortunate that we have such a great team; Claire didn't miss a beat and the internet orders continued as normal through the move. David organised the parts stores like a bloke who does this all the time; how it should have been from day one, probably. Olga has arranged the internet fulfillment counter, Carl at M60 Removals did us proud with the move.

The local radio station has been plugging us all day right after the news. 

A bloke I used to know had a plaque on his desk with simply PPPPP on it. It stood for Perfect Planning Prevents Pathetic Performance. It stuck with me. We planned well, and everything has gone to plan. Because of proper people. :king:

So tomorrow we can relax a little. We have our opening party. The legendary north west broadcasting icon Gordon Burns is in the house, and Tameside Radio are doing a live broadcast from 10am.

See you there or you can listen online >>here<<:thumbsup:

I know what it's like moving a business. We had to close our shop when the lease was up as they wanted more money. Right at the time when everything was shutting because of the economic downturn. We could have managed a smaller increase but there was the stupid service charge too. That went up yearly regardless of the rent. At the end of our lease, the service charge was nearly half the rent!

What you have achieved in a couple of days is absolutely marvelous. To do that and keep your internet orders going out is fantastic. I am sure you will be going from strength to strength.

Well done everybody! I wish I could be there for the opening but we have just taken a lease on another shop and I have to get things ready there.
