Not getting at you "Blazin", but does anyone have any idea why theatrical pyro firing systems are always so expensive compared with their "normal" pyro equivalents?

£700 for a new 8-channel system? Why? All you're getting extra is the "pods" for the cannisters (and I did hear that LeMatre have changed the pin dimensions of some of their kit, so you need two sets of pods anyway).

Went to Ebay to look at this again and was told it's been removed or not available. It was there yesterday and I thought had several days still to run on Ebay.... so why's it gone? Is it one of those things that Ebay doesn't want listed?

Yes, Ebay, emailed me saying that it was removed because in the additional items there were the Gerbs, if i am to relist i have to remove the additional items, so, il wait until next weekend before auctioning again.
I guess thats what happens to newbie ebayers!!

I'm sure anyone who buys it may still be interested in the "extras" after the auction is over.

I think they will, i have had to omit the extras, but they will go with the firing unit at no extra cost, so, second time lucky, its back on again!!
