Yes the problem is there is a cut off cost where the cost of getting things
sorted outweighs all the need to get it working so you chuck it in the bin.
Unfortunately most of the things that have failed are made in China, nearly
always say in stock with a uk address but the info from amazons then says
its coming from china.
I get the feeling there is some hoodwinking being attempted on Amazon and
the customer here.

Not for the first time, nor for the second, do I find that my (from a very
limited sample) recent purchase is either CFU or fails within a few months
of buying it.

Why do people swear by this means of shopping

Things may be cheap(er) but if they are useless and you have limited
(practical) means to get redress, what's the point?

Gimme the pound shop any day, at least I can take things back :-)
