Xmas Presents Broken Already! (& Other Problem Products!)

Feel like a post christmas moan?.. Get it off your chest here! :D

I'm not actually writing about a christmas present that has broken already, although I know a lot (from other forums) of you have said yours have, what are they? Lets name these shoddily made goods so others can be warned!

What I'm complaining about is GEL PENS! Almost every one I've ever purchased has stopped working when there is loads of ink (that you can see!!) still in it! How can they carry on selling them everywhere when they obviously haven't been made right!? :wall:

A gel pen I tried today died on me and I just felt the need to write about it.

What's your problem product?...
