[TowerTalk] Used Harnesses

[Chris Wynn]

When I was a broke college student that loved to chase DX and contest, I bought a used Buckingham belt and lanyard and used it to climb pretty much everything.  However, don't think of one minute that the word, "USED," didn't cross my mind as I was strapped around 100 feet or so!
I still have it and have compared it to my newer ones and find that the quality of it far surpasses most of the newer ones....However, I would never allow my sons to climb with it!!!!!

"Used, cheap, save my life, in the same sentence?"

Can anyone find reports of harnesses that failed, new or used?
For that matter, I'd like to see reports of harness that actually caught
people who fell.
Does anyone know of bad or unreliable NEW harnesses?
