Good point..

And just to cover my bum..

Anyone using a dashcam unit that I supply does so at their own risk.
I advise you do not use one at all in a moving vehicle.
I advise the unit is not connected to any power source
I further advise you do not attach it to any vehicle as it may damage the vehicle
In fact the unit should not even be carried in a vehicle in case it falls, causes a distraction and results in an accident

Anyone ignoring the above caveats and deciding to use a dashcam I supply for anything other than claiming ownership and admiring it at home must do so of their own volition and accept any consequences of using a unit are the responsibility of the user and not me or anyone connected to to me in any way

There ya go !
I'm not going to labour this but as someone who ran an online retailing company I can say your disclaimer, which is what it is has no legal significance. The widow of a Funster could employ an ambulance chasing lawyer who would make life most unpleasant. Ditto if a camera caught fire and destroyed a MH. You could sue your supplier and good luck if they are based in the Far East but the insurer of the destroyed MH will be knocking on your door.

Your choice, but like it or not you have become a retailer with all the obligations that entails.

Folk clearly appreciate what you are doing and the chances of anything going wrong are slight but if they do you are liable, assuming you are collecting the money from the end customers.

Mate, I have NO idea what you do or did for a living..
I have run and do run a reasonably successful on line business ( with a fairly large number of web sites etc ) selling motorcycle parts, most of which I manufacture.
If you honestly think I am unaware of the issues I would urge you not to be concerned..

I have not BECOME a retailer, I am a retailer of parts that enter the most dangerous environment in the world**.. getting a few cameras for some folk as a service is not something I am going to loose sleep about

** There are more motorcyclists injured every year than solders .. a scary thought !

And actually, that crap I posted is PERFECTLY legal and it being on a public forum means that it must be accepted in any case presented as evidence

I have no idea why you feel you have to try and ruin the deal for everyone and try to make me sick with worry but please do not be concerned on my behalf

Any one wants to knock on my door the best they are gonna get is a few bob out of my state pension ( when I get it )
After a very acrimonious divorce many years ago I can assure you I own absolutely NOTHING of value, have no savings, and am quite probably likely to die a pauper with or without the help of some muppet trying to sue me because I offered to help them and others out..

Hi John,

Please add me to your next order, five units please.

These are not for resale, but presents, Christmas if in time, birthdays if not.

It's almost certainly not got anything to do with whether the Samsung memory cards Falcon has purchased are real or fake. The camera firmware is of an age that's not compatible with the file structure used in cards over 32GB - it's as simple as that.
The cards wont have been toasted, and are fairly easy to recover - but I see Falcon is returning them to the seller

I've only read the fist two or so pages of this thread, then got bored with the "witch burning". Not really "Fun" is it ?

All of this comes down to checking facts (no pun intended) Read box, check out card (lots are stuffed) see how many sold, see how many complaints, Find out what Jaws does for a living! Then and only then speak :)

Having said that....we all make mistakes......well except me:whistle:

Dear Mr Jaws.
In 1969 I purchased a motorcycle and all went well
until 1975 when I had a blowout.
Can you please forward the sum of £23.00 in damages.
Sadly there were also court costs of £4.73p

This with accrued interest now has amounted to £53,750.00p
which is just by coincidence the amount I need for a new Motorhome
please forward cheque ASAP.

I'm not trying to be negative. I was trying to be helpful. When I ran a mail order business I used to sell a few bits to customers in the USA then read the fine print of my insurance and realised I wasn't covered for US customers as my insurance company weren't prepared to fight a 50 million dollar law suit from Texas or wherever. Nor was I too happy about being led away by US Marshalls in an orange jump suit, so I stopped selling to the US.

We live in times where there are people who watch the adverts on the TV where lawers offer their services to fight your case for you for free if say you cut yourself on a bit of sharp plastic on something you bought.

I am sure Jaws knows what he is doing but I didn't want to see him get hurt.

Try lemon juice, but you may have to rub it in a bit first, then rinse it off with some bottled water- no use using tap water ,thats what the stains are!

Thanks for that suggestion........but I have now ( with helpful advice from members) solved the problem, cut lemon in half, rub on, wait half an hour. Wash off, clean with window cleaner......job done.:D
OK, I'm not offended. Probably a bit cheaper than my suggestion too :LOL:

Does any one know how you wind your neck in?

I've seen it on this thread twice now with a suggestion to others and thought I would have a practice but i still can't get round more than 90 degrees? I'm here in Amsterdam and will record an effort of me doing so on jaws very good dash can which doubles up as an excellent pornography recording device too...
problem is with a 16gig card I can't record my self in action for more than 8 hours....? Would switching to a 64 gig card solve this problem?

I want to complain as well.

There I was setting this bit of kit up, pondering how to put it together, fitting a 16gb card and once operational put it on the kitchen table.

I am now 300 miles from home in the van and the dash cam is still on the kitchen table along with my flashing tyre pressure monitors.

It's criminal that these goods are not supplied with forget me not wires that allows you to fix such gadgets to your person so you don't forget to bring them to the van.

I know this has been mentioned in several places already but I have just had a PM from someone who is very upset after trying to format two 64 gig cards and having them fail.

Further.. As I am making sod all out of them other than a load of work and a load of grief, after the next batch arrives I will NOT be ordering any more..

Reading between the lines I believe the person who ran in to trouble expects me to pay for the duff cards..



I am sorry to all those who have ordered but once this next lot of 50 arrive and are sent out thats it..

I simply do not need the problems and as its all been done at cost price there is no way I can cover problems

Again sorry to disappoint but the 50 arriving in about 10 days time will be the last


Hi John,
Just need to know what the card is that I need .
Is there a size or number ,sorry to be a pain,lost instructions & I am travelling to france on thursday

thanks terry
