Cheap TatOneEyedMonster 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?

What's wrong with just strong and cheap?I got a second hand bike for about thirty quid - easily lasted me 3 years of daily use and I'm sure it's still going now with the bloke I gave it to.
There is a difference between guitars and bikes. I didn't need my bike to do anything more than get me from A to B. It worked perfectly well like a bike for me and £70 wheels would have been overkill.
