electricity costs?

Post by Chrisliverpool »

basically what the title says, anyone got an idea how much a combi machine would cost to run per year or per month being turned on 24/7, just so i have an idea when new sites ask me, with the price of energy being at the forefront of everyones mind, do you typically suggest you would pay them x amount per month conrtibution for elec costs, bearing in mind i need these sites more than they need me?
thanks

pay them nothing, if you offer commissions and electric the site will make more than you do after youve paid machines, breakdowns, stock, lost stock, wages etc etc.

thanks matt, iv already agreed pretty much 0percent commisions, but just because obviously elec is costing more than it ever has obviously it is a question that some sites are asking, what do we reckon about £20 month on elec?
