Just picked one of these up in costco for about £41. RRP £60. Excellant quality reception and charges as well. They were selling quickly so grab one whilst you can

Is this really a great deal? Yes, it's cheaper than the RRP but is it any better than the £5 one I bought?
It this the same as the one amazon are selling for £13.88?

I bought one almost identical to that on a well know auction site for around 7 pounds, including p&P for my hubby and it works fine.0

It is not the same as the Amazon one, as it charges and is in a cradle.

The FIVER one I purchased on e-bay has a charging fly lead...
Beware of leaving a cradle on display.
1. Oikes! know you have some sort of kit. They'll break a window just to look in the glove pocket?
2. It could be mistaken for a mobile (3 points available NOT NECTAR!:o )

Personally, I believe Belkin charge the earth for items available at a fraction of the price elsewhere. You really are paying for the name.
I wouldnt pay more than £10 for a transmitter/cradle/charger.0 -
Well to be honest yes you are probably right, you can get the same style item cheaper. However i thought that anyone who specifically wanted a belkin one, and was looking to save money on it, would find the information useful. I dont believe i have said that it was the best value for money i just said that it represnted a severe cut of the rrp!0
