Not true John. The owner must have originally bought the product hence
it would have been on the market at some juncture. The owner is
therefore perfectly within his right to it.
The directive only requires that new product placed on the EU market for
the FIRST time be compliant (after 30th June). (with emphasis on EU and
first-time.)
Hence, any Pb product placed on the EU market prior to 1st July is
entitled to be sold after 30th June and any Pb product placed and sold
on the EU market prior to the 1st July may be re-placed on the market
after 30th June (i.e. second hand). The proviso on the latter is that
the product has not been rebuilt/refurbished.
Regards,
Chris

The answer is - it depends......
I believe if the goods are wholly owned by the end user and paid for
before
1 July, then they cannot said to ever be "on the market" since they are
never actually for sale.
On the other hand if the end user then sold them that would be an
offence.

Hi Trevor, Nic, Chris, IPC LF Listservers,
I can't follow who said what and the real situation you are dealing
with.
<==I believe you wrote this as the NWML reply to your query.
<Our reply is:
EEE products are 'placed on the EU market' as soon as they leave the
point
of manufacture in the EU or clear customs in the EU, as long as no
further
work is performed on them of any sort and if before 1 July 2006 they do
not
need to comply with RoHS regulations and can be sold on at any time
after
this date.">>>
This seems reasonable except being in the US the way the ending of this
sentence is structured seems confusing.
"and if before 1 July 2006 they do not need to comply with RoHS
regulations
and can be sold on at any time after this date"
Just because you have a long term contract to supply finished widgets
and
even receive payments far in advance, so that your customer owns your
product in the manufacturing stage doesn't mean you can still keep
shipping
SnPb products. July1 or 01July is the end date for funny stuff to be
done.
It seems like you/yours are going to make your/your customer's case a
place
for attorneys, or barristers to make some money off your errors.
Yours in Engineeing, Dave
YiEngr, MA/NY DDave
