jack Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 in two to three years when every one is on the E.T.S System wourld wide do you think the rings will go up and pervent people from breeding big teams
pjc Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 hopefully when the majority are on ets the rings will be intergrated and the overall cost will be reduced, i.e 25p union ring and £1.10 ets ring currently, combined ring would prob be around 75p!
Novice Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 I feel that the ETS rings should have initially sold through the Unions. That would allow them to not only regulate the price but also keep a small portion of the revenue. This was a big mistake when the system was introduced.
OLDYELLOW Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 spot on pjc no reason why they can intigrate now

Guest Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 I believe the price of the rings will soar,but a more worrying issue is will there be a charge for endless updates. :-/ :-/
jack Posted February 26, 2009 Author Report Posted February 26, 2009 i just think when they cant sell anymore systems the only way they can get money out of us is the rings
OLDYELLOW Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 i just think when they cant sell anymore systems the only way they can get money out of us is the rings they wouldnt need to employ as many people to produce the rings but the greatest fear is they bring newer systems out and make the current ones obsolete by discontinuing the rings
pjc Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 the world didn't stop when everybody got a clock so why should it when everybody has ets? There will be new models etc which members will continue to buy wanting the lattest available. Phil
Guest IB Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 I don't think ETS will have any affect on the numbers bred.
Guest Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 they wouldnt need to employ as many people to produce the rings but the greatest fear is they bring newer systems out and make the current ones obsolete by discontinuing the rings Spot on for a change Oldyellow. ;D ;D.If you take a look how technology has advanced over the years, whether its computers,or any other technological product, change is inevitable and the consumer will pay the price for advancement. So beware and be prepared to PAY. :-/ :-/ :-/
hotrod Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 in two to three years when every one is on the E.T.S System wourld wide do you think the rings will go up and pervent people from breeding big teamsi would'nt bet on that , 2/3years everyboby is on ets , your having a laugh ,most and i mean most who have it have only got it because they got it for nowt, i for one will be happy with my antiquated t3 ;)and im not anti ets .
Guest Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 I have a brand new Unikon system that i got for free from my club,and while i don't discriminate anyone who chooses to use it.Its not for me,it wont help me win a race and i also believe instead of this being the future,more of these systems will end up in the bin and most will revert to conventional clocks.The futures bright ;) ;D

Guest karl adams Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 it wont belong before they bring out an ets system with a tracking device so u can see were your birds are on their way back home
Guest Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 i can't see them going in the bin , but i can se the demand for rubber rings declining and they go out of buisness if no market for there produce The ones on the market at the moment will become outdated.How much will you pay every 2 years for a new improved system.£450 every 2 years i dont think so.T3 £100 end of.
Guest Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 I do believe there is a element of the fancy that actually believes that ets will improve their results.If your crap you are crap a timming system will not improve your results. :-/ :-/ ;D

OLDYELLOW Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 I do believe there is a element of the fancy that actually believes that ets will improve their results.If your crap you are crap a timming system will not improve your results. :-/ :-/ ;D it will improve results for a few whilst others are thumbling about loft getting rubber of first bird ets will have clocked 6 birds , others see first been grabbed and dont want to come in week after bird that was manualy clocked sits out not wanting to under go same prodedure after last race so guess im one that believes it can improve the effectiveness of trapping seconds cost races but yes you have to get them home first no mater what clock you use , and there will be just as many winners clocked on manual cocks
Novice Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 i think even more would of rebeled at the system been brought in if that was the case at least we all have the choice of which system we wish to use Not at all the choice would always have been there. The Unions were much to anxious to introduce the system through the back door and as a result missed the opportunity to give some of the profit back to the fancy. Yet another example of mismanagement.
Novice Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Many fanciers introduced this system to give them an advantage in short races. Now most fanciers are buying to catchup on the originals. For me it's simpler than that. I just won't pool in early races so they won't have any of my money. ETS companies are like Gillette---they would gladly give you a razor free because they make their money from selling blades. Oh for some foresight in our governing bodies.
Merlin Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Too true Novice,its the commercialism that's involved here,and you can bet its only going to get dearer,by whatever means these bodies choose,what an opportunity missed by governing bodies,they should be supplying ,when needed E,T.S. System/rings/etc,and dealing with Manufacturer/s cutting out middle men,sadly they didn't,now all are at mercy of commercial interests for foreseeable future
Guest Paulo Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 I reckon we'll see a bit of price fixing of rings when it comes in
OLDYELLOW Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Not at all the choice would always have been there. The Unions were much to anxious to introduce the system through the back door and as a result missed the opportunity to give some of the profit back to the fancy. Yet another example of mismanagement. If they were to take a cut in the profit of the ring sales they would have gone with the company that offered the most lucrative deal and thus cutting the others ets systems out of the markets enforing the passing of one system for all , after all not all ets rings are compatable thats why you buy from them from the manifacturer of the machine you use not for any ets manifacturer
