As some of you know, recently Vacation Campers went under.
I recently had a zipper go on my Vacation Camper camper trailer door. Rang Theo and he was happy to do a fix for me for a fair cost.
Dropped it around and was having a chat with him. Simply, they went bust because they couldn't compete with the cost of imported models, in the maket segment they were in. They were looking to move into a more upmarket/expensive model, but that required time and capital, and when you have tight conditions, reduced labour, and have already put a fair chunk of your own house mortgage into the business to keep it going, very hard to do.
The reason for this thread is that I found Theo and Pauline to be very honest and straight forward people. Theo knew his trade stuff, and Pauline was well known for her canvas work. Personally they are doing it tuff adjusting to having to have to shut their business, and financially as well.
If any of you who live on the Brisbane Northside, need Canvas or general work done to your camper, please keep them in mind.
