    ...it also makes getting the body into the boot of your car easier, particularly if you don't have a big one.

    LOL, looks like I need to go to an agents' forum to discuss this... Hm, by the way, is there the one?

    Joking aside, I think we will all be collectively better off if we openly exchange our discoveries. Otherwise there is equally no point warning each other of top 15 agent's tricks but somehow there are already 13 pages there.
