    Put in a massive quote and forget about it. If nothing happens you have wasted 15 mins of your time, thats all!

    We put a quote in for a big business a few months ago thinking the same thing... forgot about it then a month later get a call asking to do the job. 3k for less than a days work and now they will call back regularly as we are on their 'file'

    only if he was quoting against a Jims
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you
