This is a question Cheap Tat

OneEyedMonster remindes us about the crap you can buy in pound shops: "Batteries that lasted about an hour and then died. A screwdriver with a loose handle so I couldn't turn the damn screw, and a tape measure which wasn't at all accurate."

Similarly, my neighbour bought a lawnmower from Argos that was so cheap the wheels didn't go round, it sort of skidded over the grass whilst gently back-combing it.

What's the cheapest, most useless crap you've bought?

This is a QotW answer And the best piece of cheap tat I ever bought...
was my Honda 90 step-through. I bought it for £200. It might be cheap, and tatty, but it always starts, the engine pulls like a train and I'm sure it'll pass its next MOT.

totally bombproof. I had the Yamaha version called Townmate? Townie? Town something. 50K miles on the clock and still went fine until someone nicked it.
