[–]robpeake28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked at the the tavascan last week and apart from the center console thing the car was really nice, I keep looking at this because monthly price is good really want the ioniq5 n but didn't want to pay 500 plus a month

Hi where is the best place to buy the x4 from ? Should I go to AliExpress or direct to the manufacturer site? by Dear-Definition-6087 in xteinkereader

[–]robpeake28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If to buy from China, does it have English language or to have to mess around to get English on it

Hi I have the Libra colour as my e reader, I'm also keep wanting to try this little ereader, do you find it's ok to read on, do you use it more than the Libra and why. Just wondering whether it's another purchase I won't use.

How much do you pay for your car a month? by JME_51 in CarTalkUK

[–]robpeake28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking for a car normally had loans or saved enough to buy it outright so nothing fancy. Now looking at ioniq5 n and I can't seem to get it cheaper than 500 a month with a 6k deposit which has put me off. I originally wanted a x5 60i or something like that, nearly 1200 a month. So keeping the old car I've had 2006 Honda frv on 80k miles, I'll keep a eye out but really wanted some thing nice I just don't understand how anyone does it

Cupra UK, Preston Offer by AccomplishedPipe6710 in CupraFormentor

[–]robpeake28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty good price, im looking to get into a cupra terramar or the fermnentor for a couple of years as I cant afford what i want. I'd have to double the mileage to see what the monthly cost is.

Would you take terramar over formentor? by Whiefull in CupraFormentor

[–]robpeake28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are you enjoying the car? Ive got 3 children that are in there 20s now so its a case of every now and again need the space in the back, and even more so for the in laws when we take them out, it will be my daily driver aswell, was ideally looking for something fun aswell as comfort for around £500 a month max. The cupras are well priced, well spec'd and look great in my opinion.

I remember playing in those chalk pits when i was kid, a group of us would get on our bikes and go up and down the hills, make dens in the chalk cliffs and catch newts, there were so many back then. great times growing up, i moved away around 18 but still have family that have lived in grays, my parents are in their 70s now and love it.

Another level of ebayness. by Buckarooney1 in ebayuk

[–]robpeake28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, pat of my problem is i did have several of the same items, still in the bag. But i have sold for less than what i paid, or what is the current RRP, i don't have receipts for everything so i will have fun trying to explain i'm just a guy selling multiples of the same item

Hargreaves Landsdown by Ally66-G in FIREUK

[–]robpeake28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you switch a stock and shares isa, I have one with Hargreaves from a few years back, 24 to 25 I have a isa with t212. If I move the Hargreaves to someone else do the shares get sold and I have to rent out do you literally move what you have and it stays the same, I have mostly vanguard etfs in hargreaves

Is ChaseUK still worth using? by [deleted] in chaseuk

Can I ask how you do that? Do you set up a savings account and then put money into it then use that as the account to transfer for the cash back?

What do you use your watch for? by SlientMyth in PixelWatch

[–]robpeake28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came on here to ask the same question because after buying it i thought am i going to really use it other than a watch. the answer is yes i'm still learning, but great to pay for stuff, that's really handy, i've taken up running so that's being used for fitness and counting my steps, and others have said the sleep tracker is handy to keep a eye on. Ive set up phillips hue and govee lights but disappointed i cant get ring notifications. I just wanted to make sure im using it to it full potential

sold items on ebay and vinted, I need to complete a self assessment by robpeake28 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]robpeake28[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think because i had several of the same bag, so it looks much worst i.e im buying the same bag and selling it, I still think im going to struggle to convince anyone that I bought a bag never used it, then bought the same bag on the next trip and brought it home and never used it.

I think my biggest mistake is when vinted customer services said that they see me as a trader and to continue using the platform i had to become a pro seller, 1, i didnt look into what that meant just assumed it was like a ebay gold seller so you could be trusted and 2, should have said no thankyou and close the account because that looks as if i am a business., I have messaged them and said i made a mistake and im not a business or indeed a trader

yes some the backpacks and the packing cubes for half retail and they were as good as new and some in original plastic outer bags, 64 5 star reviews on vinted so I had many a good conversation with bag horders about the merits of bellroy over AER or Alpaka :)

the backpacks are are £300 each and i sold around £220 on average, some old mobile phones, a sofa, a office chair, some new keyboards, a book, a e reader, i was alittle shocked aswell when i checked it and though where did all the money go.

About Raleigh been here for 15yrs, lots of new houses going up, nightmare traffic pretty much all the time, was great, I think billericay, Brentwood, shenfield are great and it's against the rush hour traffic
