Hi Jon We only receive the EU cables. Surplus equipment we pass on to friends of the house or charity or to a local broker. Here defective equipment must be returned to an authorised recycling station which we do. /gustav >>> Jon.Tydda at alcontrol.co.uk 05/17 6:23 pm >>> I've just opened a fairly large consignment of printers, and they're all full of European power cables as well as the UK type. As I was throwing them in the skip, it struck me that this was a huge waste, both in terms of the whole manufacturing process and the environment... then a question struck me - when you buy electronic goods in Europe do they come with UK power cables as well as the EU ones or is it just unique to the UK? I must have 50 or 60 of the things here in various boxes and cupboards, and if anyone in the EU has a load of UK cables then it seems obvious to not chuck them away, but to send them to each other...
