Ask for a discount on Christmas tree prices. The guys who sell Christmas trees on my forecourt at the old William Angel Gallery have made a point of offering a discount to anyone who goes down and mentions the East Dulwich Forum. I always get a tree from the guys, (this is their fourth year selling there), and the trees are very good quality.

Hi Sean - thanks for your reply and your PM.


Understand these things are a bit random and its probably just bad luck. I would happily take you up on your kind offer... if I hadn't just broken my foot and was housebound for the rest of the year! But I appreciate you getting in touch.

Sorry about your foot.


You could spray the bare branches gold or silver?

Every year people set up in pub car parks etc selling trees. I suspect they don't need to work the rest of the year because they make a killing. Every year they say what a bad year it has been (early frost, late frost, too wet, too dry...) for the trees.


Where is the competitive pressure from us as consumers and other suppliers?


Great to know. I did buy from a couple of places but every year they hiked their prices up.

    • I recall chandelier not wanting a review on this forum good or bad  
    • Echoed, your efforts are much appreciated, thank you.
    • Thanks penguin  always wondered about that place and that’s way more info than I ever thought I would get  (used to live above a gun nut on friern road - he would tell me nothing)
    • There was a Saturday afternoon crowd of enthusiasts, and at other times the owner might have been off acquiring stock. He also repaired air guns, which he also sold. He stocked edged weapons, uniforms, including antique uniforms, air guns and ammo and starting pistols and shot. Some medals and other militaria. Quite a lot of ex service chit chat on a Saturday. I had an amateur interest, didn't deal a lot, in English pattern swords and other mainly 19th century militaria. And made some good purchases there. I'm afraid WWII and later events was the major focus of most of the regulars.
