Radio-controlled table clocks cost less than 9,- EUR some time ago, at a
German discounter.
End of 2009 I bought a power meter for 9.99 EUR from a German
discounter. I've got reasonable doubt that the measuring accuracy is
that exact as the specifications do claim.
The scientific pocket calculator I bought from discounters always failed
very soon, but they are able to do everything an expensive scientific
calculator from the stone age I own can do, while being 30 times
cheaper. Today's branded calculators that perhaps can do more, are
around 8 times more expensive. I don't know how long those do last.
Discounters sell crap.
YMMV,
