liamdelaney 2,587 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 When they came on the scene it was the same as if somebody invented the wheel.We did not know ourselves this was a miracle.A fantastic invention and still is.They sometimes give trouble around electric fences and pylons.I found the early ones better than what came later(not as troublesome).They saved hundreds of dogs that would not have been found(some of my own included) so dont be afraid of your little grey knocking box they can still earn there liveing.I still find they can not be beaten for pin point accuracy the can put you down on the dogs head everytime.

Rake aboot 4,936 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Hi The Bellman and Flint is expensive,, but wait till you try and buy a Deben Mk1 box and collar !!! NOT CHEAP bud!! For about the same money you could get a Deben Mk3 (ok maybe a bit more money) I have both and really rate the Mk3M,, Haven`t used the MK1 since I got the new one tbh. ATB Quote Link to post
mickyatch 37 Posted February 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 ive been offerd one pretty cheap like say whats a bellman £370 ... ermm under half that price for a nocker box ... Quote Link to post
bud9 79 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 the old deben box is simple and easy to use and you cant go wrong i have had a couple over the years and they are far more simple than the bellman Quote Link to post

laner 6 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 I have an old one kicking about in my shed (no collar) if any young lad wants it they can have it? not to sell on as i could bag a few £££ on ebay for myself!! I would sooner some keen lad have it for nout.Im not being funny but i will have to go out my way to wrap it up and pay postage so please only some young lad (like i was a few decades ago ). I think you can still get the collars for them or maybe someone on here might have one to give away so they can have a good start in what will be a life long passion. laner 1 Quote Link to post

Like i said mate its free and so is the postage (uk only mind lol) i just hope and trust it will go to a young keen lad not someone trying to make a quick buck, if i knew how to give it to someone on here ie;terrier john so he could put it in a comp for the young ones i would? I just wish some snotty nosed kid wth a ratty old terrier gets it (like me 30 years ago) if you know what i mean. laner Quote Link to post
