Hi mate

i dont want to get your hopes up but i saw this go on ebay today. although listed as 650L there is no way it is - look at the pics its 2 x 400L caged together, the poles look similar to what you reported also.

ebay no 280588875702

like i say, am no expert but it may help.

if not, hope it turns up soon for you.

Glad its helped.

i do actually come on here a lot but dont post much - theres usually too many idiots around. you seem like a top bloke though, hope its recovered!

i've had a few freedom systems in my time and i knew it was too cheap, plus it didnt look like my 650 system.

cheers, sean

A mate of mine who has nothing to do with window cleaning goes to a lot of these small local auction houses and said to me the other day that there was one auction lot which was a load of water fed poles/brushes etc. It makes me wonder now that this could have all been stolen and this is one way of how they are disposing of there ill gotten gains under the radar so to say?   ???

I too have only just come back on this forum, one of the reasons I left was there was too much backbiting and bitching
People pulling each other apart etc  :'(

I thought the idea of a forum was to gain valued information and give useful advice. :)

This thread would seem to be useful as it may have averted some poor sod paying for something stolen. :)
If not the person buying the item should not be reviled as he most probably is just someone like  you and me trying to find a bargain! :-\
It’s a sad fact of life that people in our society steal to make a living… while the rest of us work hard. :'(
The villains  here are those that stole the item and those who knowingly sell stolen items, whether it be on internet, boot air or private sale.
Unfortunately no amount of words on this forum will change this  :'(
