Friend of mine has a market stall. Market rules now require all

It's a long time since I looked at this, but the figure I
have at the back of my mind was £6/item,
So £20 / item would be excessive ?
If your friend sells many electrical goods,
No. 8-) They do have a fair few extension leads and lights though,
all of which needed testing.
he should do the course and exam
himself (takes 2 days and evenings), and then buy a suitable
PAT tester.
I'm thinking of doing this myself. A S/H PAT tester would seem to pay
for itself pretty quickly, just from cost-savings.

I've got a robin Smartpat 5000 for sale for £250 ono.
And £160 for eight items is a rip off, should be nearer £50 - £60, because
of the few items.
