TO THE CHRISTMAS TREE SELLERS.
Fenger Forst Service has created the e-business as a service to the users.
We sell service.
It is free of charge to look in the shop window, - the web site.
The charge for using the facilities is 20 pounds. per operation when you place your
demands or if you want to reserve a volume for sale. This charge is to cover the
handling of the system and do not give any guarantee that the deal will be concluded.
The charge should also avoid non serious use of the site.
When your offer has been activated, it is brought out for sale in all of Europe
through our extensive advertising campaign in four languages.
If you want to see the demands from the buyers, it is free of charge, but if you want to give an offer to supply one of them, it will cost 20 pounds to reserve the demand until
you have received a reply to your offer.
For all deals concluded, there is a general charge of 2,5% to cover administration and
costs of marketing.
TO REGISTER AN OFFER ON THE WEB-SITE:
We have chosen a model whereby we combine a test labelling with the height measurements and a photo.
Hereby the buyer will know the quality, the average height and the type of trees.
It will be done as follows:
The representation must be a minimum of 5% ( Every 20th row in very regular plantations) but normally 10%.
The quality labelling must follow the European grading rules, which will be known to
the major producers.
Most labels will have the standard trade mark of Original Nordmann.
Unclassified trees must not carry any name.
Offers will vary in accordance with the situation in the plantations, - if the area is
well maintained, large and regular or if it is neglected and small, - if it is the first
choice in a new production area or if it is the last recovery of the left -overs.
However it is conditional to e-business, and it is a question of confidence, that the
facts are known before beginning the quarrel about the price.
There will always be qualities which are defined subjectively such as colour, density and regularity.
To get an honest description of these, we have decided to include a photo in the descriptions.
Sales of Christmas Trees can be based upon the following conditions:
1. Sale of standing trees. No service and no cost to the producer.
2. Sale -free loaded on lorry. This is the most common practice, and it includes the possibilities of buyers own labelling or use of his labels and pricing.
3. Sale free house -delivered buyers address. This is a full service product including the control of the logistics.
To register a volume for sale: Enter "Establish new user " in the main menu, and follow the advice.
TO THE CHRISTMAS TREE BUYERS.
All offers are based upon the description of the trees by the seller, as shown above.
If the quality, the size and the type of tree is known, the offer should be as well
described as possible and the time consuming trips around to the different areas with the wholesalers can be avoided.
If none of the available offers are attractive, the buyer can register as user and present his demand by following the instructions.
The charge for this is 20 pounds.
If a deal is concluded there will be a charge of 2,5% to cover administration and marketing.
This year we will operate a manual registration parallel to the internet registration, in
order to prevent unforeseen problems and to assure confidence.
If long credit is required, it can be arranged with our bankers at 1,5 % per month, and we are ready to assist in making the contact.
If you get problems please do not hesitate to contact us on the telephone
