Hello

We have just come back after purchasing and furnishing our apartment. Whilst out there we were told that the shops recommended by parador all give them a large commission and were very pricey. We did some of our shopping at IKEA in Murcia and even hired a van from the shop and transported it ourselves.They will deliver and the price depends on the value of goods. For white goods etc you will find it very difficult to beet the Euronics store in Calasspara for both price and excellent service. We ordered, oven,hob, fridgefreezer and washing machine at 1900 hrs on a Thursday night and they had it delivered and installed by 1400 hrs on the next day. The opening in our worktop was not fiitted correctly for the hob and the person installing this it had to go and get a grinder and cut the opening to the right size. This was a very timestaking jog as the surface is granite and they did not charge for this. How is that for service. 

All the best Jim

Hola everyone
Jim and I recieved our keys on Tuesday afternoon, we worked hard getting our furniture and domestic goods delivered beofre we left on Friday.  Believe it or not
but we had snow on Wednesday night and it rained through Thursday and Friday but this was good for us as we were busy doing the flat etc. I have posted some photos but they were taken in the rain and it limited our opportunity to go around the site.
As you will see the site has come on leaps and bounds from the previous photos posted and i believe the site will be finished on time. We were very fortunate to meet people on the site who were very friendly  and it is quite obvious that all of us will gain from the experiences they have had. In respect to white goods etc for your property you will find it hard to get a better deal or service than at The Euronics store in Calasparra. We checked out various domestic appliancies stores in the Murcia region, including Carrafour and Eroski.Euronics turned out to be cheaper and they delivered and installed for free within 24 hours of the puchase.
Jim is going back out at the end of Feb to finish off the apartment and will obatin more photos on the progress of the site.
As mentioned earlier the weather is not great just now as winter started at the beginning of last week and is expected to last 4-5 weeks. It was cold so I would suggest that anyone going out in the next 4 weeks takes warmer clothing with then.
 
All the best Alison and Jim.

Hi Bill

As you already know i am going out tomorrow and complete on Tuesday. I will find out the best way for you to travel from the airport and try and find out if any person in the area are doing airport tranfers. I take photos of the site and stick them on the Calasparra web site next week.

All the best

Jim Reid

Yes we are due to complete on 23rd as our property is a resale having been completed in september with the original purchaser so hopefully everything will go ok and we will get our keys. Saying that thetre has been very little correspondence with our solicitor at this stage.
