soundian Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Absolutely yonks ago. I was eliminating them from theatre kit back in the late 80s/early 90s It wouldn't be illegal to buy & use them at home but if you were to put one on stage' date=' no insurances would cover you & if you or anyone else got hurt/place damaged you & the responsable person at the venue could well face negligence charges.[/quote'] I don't see how an insurance company could withdraw their insurance if the Bulgin was used correctly, i.e. carried less than 6 amps, and also had "earth before phase", which modern buglins do, I believe. I suspect your replacement of bulgins in the late 80s early 90's was in response to the legislation requiring "earth before phase", which pre-legislation bulgins didn't have.

emergency72 Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Pretty funny...these amps sound horrible, can't believe the fuss over them!Personally I would feel bad buying anything from cash converters. An old friend sold his drum kit to cash converters to raise cash for relocating, they paid him a measly 250, and stuck a 700 price tag on it, and it sold! Sick isn't the word for how he felt! Poor guy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Jack Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 It's hardly their fault' date=' they have to make a profit to cover rent, rates, electricity etc.[/quote']To be fair, Crime Converters really do take the piss though. They could easily pay more and make a decent profit. They'll never offer more than 40% of what they'll sell it for.I overheard the 'sales' people chatting once, discussing something they were selling for 150"How much did we get it for?""Twenty quid!""Nice one!"Much laughter, as they wandered off to fleece some other desperate unfortunate.
