ets rings no answer to main question

[Guest vander mungo]

can SCOTTISH HOMING UNION dictate to me where i purchase my ets rings is there a rulling in there constitution or not ,or do i risk the chance of losing a race if i dont buy there rings      REGUARDLESS of how much cheaper they are elesware :-/

[JADE]

no..... how much are they elsewhere

[Novice]

Best ask the SHU.

My personal opinion would be that all chipped rings should be sold through a recognised union and registered against that fancier.

However I would have expected their priced to be comdeditive as they represent the fancier and should be actively trying to keep costs down.

Under 'Rules & Procedures for ETS' :-

 

Procedure 15 ~ only ETS rings purchased from SHU can be used with Electronic Timing Systems.

 

We buy them through the club, you order the number you want, just like ID rings.

SHU made approx £4k profit in selling ETS rings last year so if they have put them up and not the manufacturer they have got a cheek!!!

[Guest vander mungo]

to novice, SHU dont have the manpower to do this each ring has a code no. and would have to be swiped to get it to registar it to the buyer thats why they sell them as order ibulk to clubs only your club will know what meb, the ring belongs to SHU wont have a clue .thats why this rule if not removed yet ,will have to be.    bit of more than they can chew.

no sure just checked income/expenditure on shu balance sheet re ETS rings

[Guest IB]

There was no increase in price of ETS rings discussed or agreed at SHU Council meetings or AGM. The theme of discussions was to limit any increases to cover cost increases to SHU from manufacturers, so in current economic cilimate a 30p increase per ring just doesn't 'ring' true..   Maybes a wind-up?
