I bought an air guitar for $300. Was a bit disapointed to be honest when it arrived.

WARNING - Don't look at ebay after a few too many - suddenly all sorts of crap looks a great bargain.

Like the shortwave radio I got from Hong Kong, didn't work at all, but the postage to return it was more than what I paid for it. The MP3 player I got from Hong Kong, it worked, but you couldn't file the songs you downloaded into it into any files, so you had to scroll through 500 songs to find the one you wanted.
YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!

Will it play a 'Playlist'?
Some of them won't play a 'folder' but if you make a playlist of the folder contents, or parts thereof, they will play that.
I had the same problem with a Sandisk Sansa 150 and fixed the problem that way.

i cant say i have actualy bought crap although one person treasure is anothers load of crap.

but L series canon lens arnt considered crap , can get them way cheaper from ebay than the shops i have looked at, be that online or real shops. think i have saved around 600 dollars with the 3 len's i purchased from ebay,

70 to 200mm usm IS f2.8 L series - love this lens!
300mm usm IS f4 L serries
Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 L II USM

other things,

massage chair, best thing ever! longtivity is questionable - time will tell, 2k delivered.

wind power gen , 200 wats , with 4.5 meter stand, regulator, 530 delivered - niche market so was a conveniance to get from ebay.

navman , the newest model with 07 maps , was 280 dollars cheaper than the shop retail price.

silent 10kva gen set with pre set time auto start, brushless alternator, 4 pole, 50hz ,power factor 0.8, 8k delivered, chinese so time will tell with that one too

camper trailor tent , just the tent, 2k landed at my door, 12 oz canvas, seen the same tent in the camper shops on trailors but total price just over 8k including trailor, for 2k i can make my own trailor anyhow.

some bargains and savings to be had - if the stuff you buy is going to be used and serve its purpose!

ive also bought all my items from australian based ebay shops.
