Let's not forget, too, that there were some bloody awful and expensive fireworks on the market a few years ago, even at the "old regs" and "old prices."

I found the 1.3G stuff more like the traditional quality gear and Epic are doing a fine selection albeit a little bit more expensive.

Sorry Firestarter, I don't fully empathise with you on this point.
If you want cheap fireworks, I can guarantee you there are still products out there at last year's prices (Jordans have good offers, likewise some chain retailers will have offers). If you want big bangs and don't have a problem with storage then go to to Epic for 1.3g. If you want to buy from someone who knows consumer fireworks inside and out and will steer you accordingly then speak to Stu at Pureparty.
You say you don't spend much, but try to keep people entertained for an hour or so. How do you manage to do that, if you tend to prefer the meatier stuff?
You're not a total enthusiast, but you did bother to comment on this forum, which at least suggests you care enough to put yourself out a bit to continue pursuing your tradition.....or do you?
I'm not being critical of your views on this one, but you really do need to look beyond the obvious.

I'd say it was very good value for money.

ps. Minichris / Firestarter - I found the 1.3G stuff more like the traditional quality gear and Epic are doing a fine selection albeit a little bit more expensive. Hats off to them !!!

Yep - Inimitable

(I don't have any issue with 1.3g fireworks, infact I would have been more than content to have the previous defaults remain in force. However, by definition HT3 storage should not be regarded as the same as HT4).
On the issue of sub forums, maybe we can have one for those who accept change and one for those who can't

And as I was saying, if this continues year in year out something has to give, especially "if" the quality drops across the board like some items have started to.

This year there still remains some balance- there are quite a lot of good value items still around, generally stock that is already in the UK. However, this won't last forever, of course.
