Cheap tat bought from the far east

[Butter Face]

I bit the bullet and ordered a couple of bits a few weeks back, first thing turned up today, pleasantly surprised so far!




Steering wheel retrim kit. Includes all the fitting kit etc too. £34 delivered.

Will see how it goes on!!

I ordered a couple of different casual jackets, i took note of what was said in this thread about sizing so checked one of the sellers size chart carefully and all the measurements on it dicated a size L,first jacket turned up within 2 weeks (very impressed) but the jacket is more like a S when I tried it on was only £12 lost so not the end of the world, I did order another as there was a price reduction so £10 this time,also this time have gone for a 3XL

Just back to work after two weeks away on holiday and have quite the selection of cheap tat to open when home, apparently it was arriving daily and my colleagues are wandering what I've been ordering from china now



Will update later when it's opened...

Here we go:





With car fob for scale



The mini crossbow is surprisingly powerful! The 'painting' is a print on canvas but not as bad as I expected, will need to find a frame for it. The 'airpods' are untested as they are going to be stocking fillers for Christmas so will wait and see how they turn out, not expecting much for the price though! Same goes for the phone case.

The mini knives are pretty well made surprisingly, little bronze one will be handy on the car key for opening packages etc.

Still more to come though...

Went on surprisingly well!

More and more sellers on eBay are masquerading as UK based but infact are the usual mix of China, Hong-Kong and Singapore . You have to check out individual sellers and the feedback is often not very pretty .

Mail order flat-pack bride?

(Our post room won't accept personal parcels any longer as with ~1,000 people here, they had 1 person spending all day ONLY sorting / advising staff of their Amazon deliveries!)

Same with us but I think it was mainly because the post room got annoyed when someone had their Ocado order delivered, and a full set of alloys and tyres in the same week.

This the equivalent of someone ( Possibly female, who's to say) buying a nice outfit to go shopping in.
Well played LM.

Unfortunately not, although I wouldn't be surprised if wish had such a thing!

Thankfully ours hasn't stopped accepting them yet, despite having more than 1000 people in the offices, although there is a team of at least 4-5 in the mail room.
They know me now and I don't even have to give them the number they assign to deliveries most times, they just grab it on the way to the counter... Although as the wish stuff doesnt require signatures they just send it up to our mail boxes/desks instead.

Sigh.

Well it's Friday. I'm bored, wife us at work and nothing to watch.

So, off to wish i go. Just as well i packed in the booze!

Edit: Look at this!

I'm trying to get an idea od scale using the pictures with hands in it and the paving bricks. I reckon that looks to be about a monoblock wide?

Chances of this getting through cutoms and to my door before Police Scotland?

Right, the rest of my tat got here yesterday. Here we go......


Donald Trump Rubber Duck - Very good, nice little stocking filler.
Toothpick crossbow - Standard, (anybody worked out a way of increasing the power yet?)
Jaws Bookmark - Packaging ste, actual item OK for a stocking filler.
Fart Whistle - ste
Hairy Belly Bum Bag - Really good, nicely pleased with it. Again a good pressie for someone.
