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?

remoulds?They sound like they were probably remoulds/retreads where they take an old tyre and in a factory sand/scour off the old tread to make a smooth surface then glue a fresh strip of tread on the tyre.
Almost but not quite illegal here in the UK, most garages refuse to fit them as they're so dangerous.
