Petrol can

Can anyone explain why non-compliant cans are allowed to be sold?
For the same reasons as non compliant numberplates, headlamp bulbs, children’s toys and dozens, if not hundreds of other items are. People will buy them, because they are cheap, usually from China, like you do.

I didn't ask why people buy. I am asking why people sell.

Nothing wrong with stuff from china. Pretty sure the compliant stuff are from china.

Probably truer to say there's nothing wrong with some stuff from China! But speaking as someone who worked for a company that imported a container-load of face masks from China during Covid and sent a few of them to a British lab for testing, I can assure you that it doesn't really matter what compliance text on some Chinese products says... ;)
 
That says something about the importer, doesn't it?

The importer (our gaffer) learned a hard lesson on that one. China can do truly excellent stuff...

...if you pay for it.

It can also do really **** stuff, if that's your bag, and it can do it very cheap.

You're always raving about how cheap the stuff you buy from China is, aren't you...? ;)
