Some Basic Facts:
This is where you and/or your shop come in. I realize fully that no repair person really wants to straighten out
someone else’s mess. As a repair person for over 30 years, the last thing I really wanted on my bench was someone
else’s attempt to repair a machine, but that is old school. There are plenty of capable folks out there that are in fact
pretty handy with a screwdriver, perhaps you've encountered a few already, or maybe your one of them :-). The fact
remains, it is now on your bench, ready for your magic touch. Heck...I'm a big "Do It Myself" person as well, and I
have messed up, but when I can find someone that will help correct the issue, and they are kind and friendly about it -
they have just gained another life time customer! So all in all, welcome those who wish to “fix it themselves”, they are
in fact looking for help now, and perhaps they haven't really messed it up that bad :-)
Besides, aren't we all trying to save a buck these days :-)
What I propose:
On my page mentioned above, I will provide:
Pricing:
If you advertise in the phone book, radio, newspaper, or TV, you already know that is fairly expensive. I’m sure youwill find my rates very reasonable for what you are getting, and the hits that it is starting to receive. My site at this
time is a little over a year old, but has the following of 31,200 hits when a free Yahoo-GeoCities site.
We all run into problems from time to time and need a little friendly help.
This is a limited time offer, sign up now, and get lifetime listing. As a big thank you for those already signed up,
your membership has just been changed to a lifetime membership as well. I really want to see this grow. There are
folks looking for help out there, so give it some thought. If you have tinkered on your machine, wish to make a couple
extra bucks tinkering on others, why not offer your knowledge, help someone else in your area, and don't forget the
manuals I offer that will help you help them
That is about 28 cents a day in advertising expense for a site with a logo, and 21 cents a day without a logo.
Even less with the rate change...pass the word along to your favorite shop, perhaps they might have an interest. Plus as of 5/09, contacts that need to order parts from TNT Repair will receive 15% off their
order. (coupon entry required - and provided to all dealers)
Site Up Time & Modifications:
Unless Yahoo is having major problems, the site should be online 24 / 7. I’m still working on an Index & Search
feature. Once a page becomes full of listings, the search and index will be a huge benefit to those looking for
someone in a particular area. I’m not an HTML guru – so bear with me as pages start to fill up. Listing will be in
alphabetical order of location/city.
Payment Information:
Make payment to PayPal ID: tf43@yahoo.com, or select from the two buttons above as to which plan you wish to
choose. As soon as I have confirmation of payment – I’ll send you your login ID - Password – Site Address, to where
all the guides are kept - Thank You for your interest in becoming listed as a Repair Contact for your area - Terry
Note: Please Wait Before Making A Payment - I Wish For You To See Your Sample Posting & Are Happy With Its
Appearance --- Unless Your Are Absolutely Sure --- Go Ahead And Purchase Now --- We'll Get It As You Wish
On the Lubricants page are some handy repair tags and estimate forms you might find handy in getting started
- There is a abundance of Singer Sewing Machines on the market
- There are plenty of “Do It Myself” folks out there
- Those “Do It Myself” folks run into problems and could use some friendly help
- The Singer Machine usually requires parts, in the nature of gears, belts, or just a simple adjustment
- Perhaps the “Do It Myself” installed the parts, installed them correctly, but still cannot get it to work

Other Fine Print stuff: (updated 11/15/2007)
solution can be found to resolve issue's, but if not, and it is determined that there is no work around - the listing may be subject to
removal - it is in fact all about trying to help others help themselves. I'd like to have genuine folks out there that are willing to help
out in one's time of need :-) I know you're out there, but at the same time, I have known others that are only in it for the dollar.
If you have customer testimonials on your work - send them to me, or have them shoot me an e-mail telling me just how great they
think you are - I love that stuff :-) Heck...I'll even post it in your listing - what a plus for your listing. I'll keep it limited though to about
2 testimonials - but can update them as they come in, and show the date of them
Again, the site is new, and I think the idea of listings will be a huge hit with visitors. I get e-mails from time to time asking if I know
of anyone in a particular area.
As with most any site, terms & conditions are subject to change - notifications of changes will posted only & appear on the main
page stating any changes made (under "What's New This Update - lower left area of main page)
Your rate, as mentioned above, is locked for 2 years, meaning current start year and the following year.
RATE CHANGE: Rates are onetime only...liftime so to speak :-)
Thanks for looking, and for your interest & consideration at being listed
- Please be sure of your listing details - Modifications are cool - no worries
- The Site is rather new - so please bear with me as the site grows
- Once you approve of your listing, it will be posted to the appropriate page & payment is expected
- Once payment is received - you will be sent a Login ID & Password, along with a link to the folder containing all the repair
manuals & guides I have available. Please feel free to download them to your computer - I do ask that you keep them to yourself, and not offer them for resale, or post on other sites for sale, or free
- Refunds - There will be no full refunds - refunds will be prorated from the day listed to the day you wish to remove your
listing - Both parties reserve the right to end a listing at any time
