This was annoying because the seller is based in the UK and claims you should buy from them because you take your chances buying from China.

There are tons of eBay sellers who bulk buy from China and then resell with a huge markup but with the convenience of quicker delivery - and the slightly fake sense of being more reliable as they are UK based.

Yep, I was way too trusting this time.
