Solar Water Heating: A DIY Guide
Customer Review: Excellent, concise, practical
This 24 page booklet provides all the information needed to build and install a DIY solar heating system. The author is knowledgable and his text is pleasingly free from from padding and dogma - e.g. he suggests the ideal location and orientation for a solar collector then continues to specify a range of measurements within which the collector’s performance won’t be adversely affected. The time I saved in not having to plough through pages of irrelevant Google results (as one other reviewer suggested) is worth far more to me than the modest cover price of this book. Probably the best “how to” book I’ve read.
Customer Review: Not worth ?5.99
This book / phamplet is ok IF it was ?1.99. With a bit of effort you can find all the information in this book via google. The design of the solar collector could be better and i’m not convinced that this book concentrates on a great design. Overall at ?5.99 it is overpriced and the same information is probably available in an ebook for 99p on eBay. Informative for the complete novice.

JCB SDS60 Screwdriver Set 60pc
Customer Review: Exceptional value, complete coverage
The variety of drivers you get in this set for under ?10 is really excellent. Plus they come in a compact handy plastic case. The quality seems fine to me - the rubberised handles are much easier to grip than solid plastic ones, and the chrome vanadium shafts should last a long time. You even get a reasonable socket set too - what more could you ask?!

Really happy with this product - 5 stars!

Customer Review: fantastic bargin
I bought this set from Amazon sometime back and never really got to use it until now.The quality is good when screwing or unscrewing you can feel the firm grip on the screw as you twist,hardly causing any ware on either the screw head or driver head,however the driver heads are painted black and you will see the paint coming off eventually .The fantastic assortment of drivers to choose from is jaw droping for DIY fanatics.The only gripe I would have is that they should have included a stubby flat screw driver as they only include a star one,hey but for the price you can’t really complain JCB almost got this one right,and at an AMAZING PRICE from AMAZING AMAZON.All I can say is get your self a bargin before the price goes up.

Customer Review: Great product
I buy watches a lot & am always paying a Jeweler to adjust the straps to fit my wrist. The final straw came when I bought a Carbon watch from next, which included in the box, a wrist tape measure & fill in return to sender form for watch strap adjustment that would cost me ?15 & a two week wait! I bought this together with the 10 piece watch tool kit. Great tools, well made & do the job. (2 watches, three links removed, 20 minutes!) Only gave 3 stars because of the packaging. Where are we supposed to store the tiny tools?! Surely not in the plastic wrapper it arrived in! otherwise i’d have given stars.

The S.P.I.N. Selling Fieldbook: Practical Tools, Methods, Exercises and Resources
Customer Review: Try it
I have read half of the book and I found it very interesting. I do not have selling experience but have read many book about selling. It seems that Rackham has really been working on his book. comparing to other material I have seen this is the best one. so far.
Customer Review: One of the Best
There’s a lot in this book. It takes you back to the basics of persuasion and ‘workbooks’ you through an evaluation process of what you should be asking and listening to in a sales process. In my opinion this book is the best thing next to actually paying a lot to go on one of their 2 day courses. As one of the SPIN course managers said, “We should have never written this book - it’s too good.” Surround what you learn in this book with techniques to generate solid business relationships, learn and practice presentation skills like it’s an olypic sport - and then you are well on your way to being in the top 10% of business earners.
