The 50g I got the cheapest was 0.00. The seller didn't look in the battery compartment before listing, I completely forgot to ask for photos, and it arrived with the compartment full of solidified battery juice (and of course the batteries that it came from). I pointed it out to the seller, who gave me a full refund.

I then spent quite some time cleaning the powdery deposit out of the compartment and cleaning the contacts. It actually works fine, although I do expect it to fail later on given the amount of corrision I had to clean off. Some of it must have made it to the PCB.

There are only 10 types of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
