yeah I buy fancy Ionics resin in those tubes things, cost about £80   but then again the 1st one lasted from Aug 06 to Jan 09 when I decided to change it although I didn't really need to with tds showing 000    just thought I would change it and the present one is now 1 year old and still 000 tds


how much do you spend on resin over a year ?

Sorry stephen s - are you really saying you changed resin when it was still showing 000TDS? Why would you do that?

And in answer to your question I buy a 25kg bag of resin for £69 which lasts me two years.
It's a game of three halves!

could be any reason why hes selling it , illness perhaps, or sick of windows, maybe 2 weeks ago won the lottery so out with this old working for a living lark.

yes i know what you mean , at the end of the day most systems do the same thing , i dont think ionics are any better than brodex , it is marketing.
The crash test and marketing are there top 2 things, but have to give them credit also for selling resin in the fancy tubes to all there customers, now that is very clever repeat business for what is just resin inside that is more than likely available elsewhere cheaper (anyone know whzat there resin is ?), goes to show fancy packages sell for more money.

Well done Ionics for doing it I say,

if you have the money why not get one.

As with anything don't believe everything your told as the truth can be very flexible

A three year old trafic is worth £6k plus vat, try selling one for more, you wont get it, a dealer might but you wont.

You can buy the new for £11k plus vat so £5k depreciation in 3 years is about right.

I only changed it because of inexperience by tinking it must surely need changing as it was from Aug 06 - jAN 09  so while I was down near Ionics I decided to change it,  yes it was still coming out at 000 after 2 and half years

have no plans to chang the current one until it needs changing so that could be another year or so

You have to take into account the mileage. There are 244 for sale on autotrader and only 9 are less than 6k that must tell you something! I am looking to buy one at the moment and I have not seen one with decent low mileage and service history for 6k but if you know where there are some please forward the details, that said there is one, just one for 5500 plus the dreaded so they will be getting a call in the morning!

The thing is dose any one know why he is selling? well i have brought an ionics system 650Lt pro6 with out the ionics sales pitch. You see i saw my redundancy coming 2/3 years before it happen, so what i did was buy some hand tools and got out to see if i could hack it especially in the winter. I started of doing friends and neighbors. I looked on message boards like this one then quickly found out what was on offer in the WFP market. I have looked at a lot of them and for me none come close to ionics systems. i wonder how many people on here if they had the money would buy one?
