Rob Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 but I think coyurts would see it differently I don't think the courts would see it at all - Who would care??! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gareth Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 was just a side note, I dont mind, but I think coyurts would see it differentlyThe courts?! :) I think the only reason they'd see it differently is becuase of the tears in their eyes caused by laughing so much ... As Tim and Peter have said, if you order a black Par56 and get a black Par56, you really shouldn't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 I think you're missing the point Ben.If you agree to a hire from Stage Electrics of say, 10 Par 64 cans, thats what you'll get. If you approach them and say "I would like to hire 10 James Thomas Par Cans" and make it perfectly clear that you won't accept substitutes, then thats their choice whether or not to accept that contract. I think its being rather petty to specify a James Thomas P64 over any other manufacturers one. A hire company stocks equipment which is useable and kept to a reasonable condition. They choose whether or not to stock JT pars - not you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmonk Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 As pointed out to you above - They never tell you your getting a JTS Par64 Black Can do they. Live with it, its a parcan, it has a lamp, you plug it in, it shines light (most of the time) you point it - its a parcan!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmath Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 was just a side note, I dont mind, but I think coyurts would see it differentlyYou'd be laughed out of court and spend enough to buy a whole Thomas meatrack of Thomas parcans, which you could count, polish and adore to you hearts content. IT IS STILL A PARCAN !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 was just a side note, I dont mind, but I think coyurts would see it differentlyI'm sorry but I'm going to have to :) here The Entertainment Biz is a specialist one, with the very large majority of people who hire equipment knowing exactly what it all does (Even the large amount of amateur groups). This means knowing that a Par 64 is the same as the next - the can makes doodly squat difference, it's the lamp that matters, so as long as they've sent you the right lamp, you don't really have grounds to moan on! This isn't Tesco's, everyone knows a Par 64 is a Par 64 whoever makes the shell, and will do exactly the same job! I very much doubt there are many people in the Biz who care who's made their Par 64 - as long as it's come prepped correctly and according to your wishes :) Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benweblight Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 as I said I dont mind. but im sure that leagally it would be misadvertising, not taking up a point with it atal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benweblight Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 I didnt say I was complaining though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmonk Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 does is say in their catalouge " here is a par64 black, you will get EXACTLY me when you phone us up and ask for a parcan? " Im sure you would complain if they sent you a Par64 Black ( james thomas of course ) and it wasnt the same serial number as the one in the catalouge as well, cos that would be mis advertising wouldnt it? The SLX catalouge has been out and unchanged pretty much for about 3yrs, and how many cases have you heard of people complaining there getting dts pars instead of jt? LIVE WITH IT!!!!!! ACCEPT YOUR TALKING C**P!!!!!! edited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
