FWIW also available for under £2 here http://www.aliexpress.com/item/F04532-New-USB-Air-Purifier-Negative-Ions-Ioniser-Oxygen-Bar-Anion-Cleaner-Freshener-for-Car-office/746929874.html
so £20 sucks nuts.

I don't think the item even has air holes looking at the ebay ad, so quite how it's supposed to get air in or out to ionise it...

So what are the three rows on two sides, then? Bumps?!

Look exactly like bumps to me!

Perhaps bumps with holes in them?

It's clearly a case for a USB memory stick. Which has no use for airholes. The seller probably assumed that anyone daft enough to buy one wouldn't think to ask about how the air would get in.
