    Ebay and chinese sellers

    I dont dislike the chinese, i just think it has to stop. Its misleading and there is no one to ensure that there products re safe to use and therefore shouldnt be sold in the uk. If a uk business purchases a product from china then its that uk business that must make sure it is fit for sale. Who...

    Why waste my time, you had no intention of answering the question so why reply with a load of rubbish like you do in alot of posts. It was a sunday and i was trying to get a rough idea. I dont need to emply professionals to find out whether stamp duty is payable when constructing a business plan.

    Business rates on my shed workshop

    You would probably get small buiness rate relief so just let them value it. Anything with a rateable value of less the 15k, doesnt pay rates. The valuation would only be done on the shed so chances are it wont cost you anything. Planning permission for the use of shed as workshop could be...
