dufjax Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) What is it with CCTV suppliers? At least once or twice a day we get a telephone call from various CCTV "suppliers" all wanting to take an order. Some we've had a look at but to be honest we just tend to stick with Hikvision from our preferred local wholesaler and they are cheaper and we know we can rely on them. One spoke to one of the lads priced up a system using there "alien" range which came in twice the price of Hikvision... Now we can't get rid of them "oh but our products are top of the range and award winning, so much better than Hikvison". There are two other persistent companies that again won't take no for an answer. We don't get randoms phoning up trying to flog Intruder, Fire, Access or any electrical install stuff... so why CCTV?

Hi, if you wanna Hikvision products, we could provide. Why not have a try. Maybe it's another good way.
