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?

not all halfords bikes are shit believe it or not
I have one that cost around £1k at the time. I've had it since I was 21 and it's been very good, has a rear swinging arm with fully adjustable suspension, adjustable front sr suntour suspension too. Shimano deore gears, and magura julie hydrolic disc brakes on the front and back. It has a Truvativ crank also. It's pretty damn light too, easy to carry. It's called a hellcat.
Obviously not top of the range these days but certainly not shit.
