How long can equipment that is placed on the market “for the first time” based on the old regime, stay on the market?
If the placing on the market for the first time was before 8 April 2000, then in theory the product can be sold and resold forever. In practice this means new products can be sold until the retailers/dealers/importer of that product run out of stock. The second hand market is another way for the product to stay on the market.
