Is there a market for second hand pumps??
Reason I ask is that recently I have discovered that although I signed up to a 4 year deal on a spirit pump over 3 years ago, Roche changed the terms to 6 yrs! Apparently this because they changed their set up for 4 yrs for 1 pump or 6 yrs for the spare pump deal. I had the spare pump.
I'm pretty miffed about this especially as they didnt even tell me! Also as technology changes so fast, its like being stuck with a mobile phone for these new long 2 yr contracts. Very old hat in now time at all.
I now see the mega benefit of built in CSMS like the medtronic set up. Especially as I have quite severe retinopathy and this new tech would help loads.
Medtronic have offered me a £££ value to change now. To be fair, its outside of my budget. I'd be happy to contribute maybe up to £1500 but they want a lot more than that.
So back to the original question. I have a spirit and the spare pump. Are they worth anything to anyone?
cheers
Paul
