I just dont get this rebranded stuff.  How can you just put a sticker on something and sell it using only your reputation at providing something else.  :stupid:

What do you think of my new RS  :laugh:

Calipers also made in the far east, to have your own calipers cast you need to have a range of 4 or 5 different calipers and probably be selling 250 pairs of each. Theres factorys out there that will machine / engrave "Im a hairy faggot" on the side if you want....

Hmmm thinking of a new marketing angle.......

I think on FB Martyn's comments he had been testing them for 6 months gave it away give he has black VWRs

The branding is a bit vulgar IMHO
