I phoned the window guy on Thursday....he says he hasn't forgotten, he's looking at stripped out windows coming in so he can get the locks off them. I could be waiting years    I'm gonna ring someone else

you've not got much of an accent to start with  When I first started working in sales we were BT trained for large switchboards and they said it was important to keep your accent and not talk with a BBC announcers voice

Personally I think he's being very fair, he could say he couldn't get one and rip you off. He's obviousley trying to save you money if the window is good
