Obviously as he got that gear in India, it's SS branded, the UK market is now subject to TON branding.

I don't think retailers will be able to get away with selling it for much longer though, even if they source it direct from India. My reading of what happened with Surridge is that they wouldn't be best pleased if a retailer continued to sell SS stuff after they went to the trouble of forcing a UK rebrand to TON.

Still, this doesn't stop ebayers and people who 'know people' In India from selling a few as a side business/hobby.
