This made me laugh
"Hello
Thank-you for your comments.
Although this is aluminium - it is a high grade aircraft aluminium hence the polished finish.
We have researched this and found it to be more durable than brass.
Also as it is lighter in weight we are able to save on postage allowing us to pass on this saving to you the customer.
Kind regards"

So a polished finish is evidence of "aircraft grade Alloy" Can you smell that

Allowing us to pass on the saving to you?
So why is a brass fitting from Gasit £2.78 cheaper?

Losers

I can afford it

In your opinion! if you bought an LPG adapter on ebay that was clearly pictured as BRASS but the seller sent you an aluminium one, how would you react?

Ask EBay for a refund as goods are clearly not as described

That would cost me time and money that was not part of the purchase agreement.

It's not as described so you can claim postage back. I just won a case on appeal to ebay which surprised me to be honest.

Sounds silly but bought s pair of what were described as cat bowls and got massive bowls that are really for dogs,far to big.... Got my money back last week. They only cost a fiver for the pair but it was the principal regards their misleading, catch all heading....

I bought a fire blanket off Ebay for the MH ages ago, it never turned up and the seller wasn't responding, I opened a case with Ebay and got a full refund within 24 hours.

Fast forward 3 months and I get a Royal Mail card through the door saying that I have to pay £3.20 if I want something that's been sent with insufficient postage on to be delivered. No idea what it is, no way of finding out other than paying, so I pay my £3.20 and lo & behold the fire blanket turns up, with a Royal Mail sticker attached saying that the charge is because the sender had used counterfeit stamps!

In fairness, with over 2000 items bought and sold on Ebay, this is the worst problem I've had - pretty good going! Buying items direct from the China and Hong Kong is something I've done more off recently, you have to wait for delivery but if u choose with care you do get some great items at very cheap prices - and I find Chinese customer service to be excellent.

Hi Andy
I used to have a set of brass spanners, used to work on live gas fittings,
Why because they don't spark.
There might be the answer that gas fittings are in brass

yes it is!

Aluminium won't spark either so it's still one each on brass versus ally

Yes it will that is why you can not use it in hazardous rated areas - it even produces a hotter spark than steel and can ignite gas.
even had to unwrap your kit kats if you had them in your sandwich box "down pit"

"The combination of rusty iron or steel, aluminum and impact between the two is a likely source of ignition ignition, known as thermite thermite action, which can produce produce sparks capable capable of igniting igniting a flammable gas or vapor. Aluminum ladders are typically not used in hazardous areas due to this fact."

I never knew that, I'm sure we had duralumin spanners on one job I did, can't remember what they were for though, but we also had bronze spanners for use in a cellulose type spray area too.
