I buy MP3 players for less than that from China - post free !
Friend has had 3 steam irons free under guarantee because they scale up. The instruction say use 50% DI water and 50% tap, as he is in London the tap water is calcium loaded and it wrecks the iron.
The last scaled one he cleaned out with spirits of salt, hydrochloric acid, and its back in action. Now its 100% DI and no problems.
Things are made so cheaply now that the sellers find it cheaper and easier to tell us to throw them out when they fail in guarantee and supply another.
That's why the service industry is dead on its feet, glad I got out 10 years ago.
