It's always good when you get a "touch" on ebay. I've had a few similar, zippo lighter (copy) but fine for work, 2 leather wallets & more.
   99p does'nt buy much so result all round i reckon. :y

To be specific - you've paid 3,68 not 0.99 but this is what e-bay looks like. Today, I've paid £6 for items and £12 for shipping... :(

Thats something else people dont always spot till too late esp on Buy it now.

Very cheap item and extremely high postage fee....saves the seller paying high listing fee.

Thats why i always use the "Price + P&P" lowest first function....

Make no odds to me - and have bought many a 99p gadget from Hong Kong that way.  Egay tend to frown on that (due to loss of fees), but sod 'em!

Point well made about postage costs but i think most of us can fathom that one. Bear in mind you spend no fuel costs going elsewhwere to buy said item.
   I think most of us have the savvy to realize an overall price. ::)

Like £0.99 for a wrist watch and £9.99 for postage. Especially from Honk-Kong. I've never ordered anything from H-K but reading feedbacks, many people complain that item is lower quality than advertised.  Not many will send it back.
And one more thing - when a custom import tax is added to to all items from China/H-K? I've   heard many stories that Inland Revenue have sent letters to people to pay tax. Is it true?
