I take it you haven't bought any 'gear' from anyone before..

If the expressions wrong, 'The Bill', etc are chinese imports.

Drugs can be refered to as 'gear', yes. But gearman is not a term I have ever heard. As a note, clothes can also be refered to as 'gear'. In fact even computer parts can be refered to as 'gear'!

'Gearman' as a term probably dosen't exist, my comment was just a play on words...a spur of the moment 'joke' kind of thing..

And there you had me thinking that the cockneys had made another stupid word up; leaving them open for another mocking....
