USB 1GB Key Drives £2.99 at 7Dayshop - any good?

Hi,

I'm not sure if these are any good but they seemed good value to me (esp. as I have a tiny 128mb one I bought not so long ago for much more than this...!) so I thought I'd post and see what others thought.

Have just had an email from 7dayshop saying they have these 1GB Key Drives for £2.99 each. There is no VAT on these items, not sure about delivery though.

Regards

Decent price. Delivery might kill though.

£7 inc del from 7DS, you are better paying £5.99 at Play for a branded Sandisk one, or £8.99 for a 2gb

These are excellent quality, I've used one for a while now and they transfer data quickly too. The trick with 7Day Shop is that the delivery charge is per order, not per item, so I always buy in bulk. (i.e.at least 8 items at a time) So then the delivery cost is spread between all the items, for example , order 8 items it's less than 50p per item. It's actually easy to do because 7DayShop have a huge range of cheap items.

Yep, the drives are fine... but...

just a small warning... 7dayshop are based in Guernsey which isn't in the UK or even the EU. If something goes wrong, they aren't interested, and Trading Standards can do nothing, as I just found out to my cost a couple of weeks ago (after 7 years of loyalty).

I would only risk using them again if the offer was so good that I felt it was worth the risk of not getting what I ordered.
