Sure, maybe now it is a different world, and maybe the age verification system is needed for the changed world. The last bladed item I bought was last summer. I was working on the garden clearing tons of outgrown bushes and brambles. I couldn't even step into the space where the bramble...

I have no problem sending the tools via Age Verification delivery, because it is now a regulation anyway. But just was wondering if the age verification system actually helps in making society safer in reality, because you keep hearing and feeling it may not be so in reality. If it makes such...

Obviously you are. But I am not. Not matter of imagination. Facts.

It was just a comment reminiscing the good old days when we didn't have these things to be bothered about. Oh well, just pass on the tools to the relatives rather than sell them. There is a simple answer. :)

Not sure if there is direct evidence it does though. We still hear about bad things happening daily even with all these doubtful systems.

For me it is difficult to imagine for the under 18 year olds have time and money to buy and play with these things. They should be studying for uni. exams, or learn the skills for their future life.

We really and honestly don't believe Age Verification delivery or eBay banning bladed items are helping or making any difference at all for making the society safer. It is just a system for them making more money by penalizing the genuine and innocent tool users and traders. Putting more law...

If they are low priced items, that would be best way to let them go. Ganzos and Sanrenmus were good quality tools I recall from 10-15 year ago when I had them. I still have some Ganzo multi tools, which I use daily in the garden.

Suppose it is a bargain, if we think that way. But if you posted 10 pieces, then you would have paid around £30 more than you would have without it. :)

Just checked Royal Mail site for their Age Verification service for Tracked 48 small parcel delivery. It is £3.39. But with Age Verification service for the same delivery, the price goes up by almost £3 making it £6.27. So it is almost 97% more expensive than the normal Tracked 48 small parcel...

Great. That looks fair enough.

Is posting edged tools in UK still problems? Last time I recall reading the form posts that the seller of the tools lost the tools and money because of the RM scanning the parcel, and confiscating the tools. Is this still in practice? Is it only RM practicing this parcel scanning? Or all...

Yes, this was the point of concern before installing the cams. So, we were trying to clarify on the legal points where it stands. It seems to be within the legality to run the cams in the gardens and on the front door detecting the motions and recording the images automatically into the cloud...

My doorbell cam and WiFi cam in the garden mounted on the shed, have been running for almost a week now. They seem to be working fine giving really sharp images, and working as expected on the movement detection and recording the movements etc. Only thing I am not sure is the battery power...

If a delivery man came to the door to deliver goods and rang the door bell triggering the door bell cam to record the motion detection, and saved the image of the detection in the cloud storage, then could he complain that his privacy was breached by the door bell cam recording? What would be...
