Does anyone know if they are there everyday or in particular tomorrow.
-
everyday as far as i know
-
Went to see that wood today he wanted 210 lira to deliver to Ovacik for the ton but did not want to cut it small enough good bargain but then you would have to get it cut again from big pieces, :(
-
That is strange, was it the same place? the wood on the back of the 3 lorries about a mile past the Umzumulu roundabout on the left hand side. I only speak a little Turkish so got a Turkish friend to explain what we wanted on the phone.
-
Yes it was the same place so really he wanted 60 lira to deliver to Ovacik and we had a turkish friend with us as well.
We paid 140 lira for half ton and had it delivered in bags. :D
-
Why did you pay 140Tl for half a ton when it was supposed to be 150Tl for a ton[?]
-
Hi Eric,
Did you read my post they wanted 210 lira and was not cut small enough [:(!]
-
Yes, and I also read that Terrie quoted 150L per ton and kareokemark paid 150L for 1.33 ton. You paid 140L for half a ton which equates to 280L for a ton. This is more than the wood merchants in Fethiye so why did you pay this? Why did you not walk away? Is it that these merchants are raising the price now that ex-pats are buying?

Eric just to clear any confusion I did pay for the extra 0.36 tonne came to 228 tl altogether.
