Wink Cheap DB 500s

Hi all just found this on ebay, best thing it is postage free 170175895639 not a bad price when there is no postage to pay.

Best regards Wez

Noticed there are lots more "brand new" DM 500-S for sale over the next couple of days, starting at 99p. Mostly from a guy in Leicester who can't spell - search for "sattelite". Delivery 12.99.

Got to be clones, but I read that the clones function just the same as the genuine article - true or false?

They are likely to be clones. I've heard that clones function about the same as originals, just with cheaper components.

Might make a bid to see if I can get a cheap one to try
