My system, my g/f's system and nearly every other system I've built for
people (a lot) have been built with parts from BCF fairs. I've only ever had
to take anything back as faulty twice. But as we only live 10 mins on the
bus from the Tottenham Court Road fairs, its easy to get back if we need to.
I must admit though, the fairs in the west end do seem to be going downhill
a bit. There seems to be an influx of new, and slighty shady looking
traders, who I won't deal with.
