are you serious?Maybe they went to Ben Dunne's new site, where people mail the type of work they need done and trade's people pitch their price. An Auction going the wrong way. Well done Mr Dunne (loadsofmoney) - more exploitation in Ireland.....
tenderwithme he should call it NIXERwithmeyep - it was advertised on Newstalk today. Think he's calling it tenderwithme.ie - Sure you'll see it tomorrow in the press - Had a politician at my door trying to tell me there was light at the end of the tunnel. Lucky he survived!!!
in principal its not a bad idea but im old enough to remember the 80's and the nixer kings it created and the cowboys it created . but extopia i dont obviously know your occupation but people only seem to think that these kind of sites only affect tradespeople and initially they do but everything has a habit of working its way into other sectors. you can get very good tradesmen at the moment to work cheaply, the reason for that is that if they were self employed they now are not entitled to JSA so have very little income, but my point is , is that you still cant work for nothingI think Ben Dunne's site is a good idea - why not?
It's actually called and is not the first of its kind in Ireland. What's wrong with a dutch auction method? It just simplifies the quote process for everyone. I'm sure plenty of good tradesmen will find work out of this.
whats to stop ie the owners of the site analyising the most popular responses to tenders and re submitting them in a slightly altered way after all at €3 a reply in todays market if i owned it , its tempting.
You obviously haven't checked out the site or the process. Whoever posts the tender decides on who wins the tender, and it doesn't have to be the cheapest. References can be asked for. Insurance can be insisted upon. Just like the real world.
I thought this was called a reverse auction and not a dutch auction?A dutch auction is just a method of selecting the lowest quote. Nothing wrong with that.
