Thanks

    They are often bundled with things as amazon want them out there. Unless it's all the same seller I would not worry. a person only needs so many.

    This. My Galaxy Gear Fit2 watch was selling for well under the retail price on Ebay a couple of years ago because Samsung were giving them away for free with every S7 they sold. I've seen countless offers from everyone from mobile phone companies to car insurers offering a free Alexa when you buy from them.

    On the black friday sale they had them for less than used ones on ebay.

    Seen them advertised cheaply fairly recently also.

    Under £20 from CPW recently also.

    Very dodgy methinks. 3 sellers (non are Currys) offering "10 available"
    "AMAZON Echo - Charcoal Fabric - Currys" for £20-£28"
