In-ear phones!

I was getting through these quickly at one time, by current ones have lasted over 7 months!

Keeping them in a case & not winding the cable tight helps.

Unfortunately, things are not made to last these days. It's called consumerism.

Made cheap and not ment to last,then taking to the dump to recycle

Re: Electrical items that dont last

thing is lots of stuff is being made there ive found lots of stuff from there is very substandard.
even modern tv's dont last.

We bought an AKAI Microwave around 18 months ago and its rusted inside really bad,so it has to go.Will not be buying another one cheap rubbish made in China.

We also need replacing the vacumn,the flexi hose has been cut back so much theres barely anything left of it.The make was a Vax.

So a Henry vac(numatic)is on the cards,and made in Somerset,anyone else has a Henry any feedback?

This is because many are easily talked into upgrading/replacing perfectly good items because they want to keep looking trendy infront of their peers. This is just brainwashing if it is done just to keep up with the joneses!

Talked into upgrading? More like being forced to upgrade -- they pull the rug out from under you is what they do. I've had my phone for two years and am perfectly happy with it but I recently got a text message from Metro PCS saying that I need to upgrade my phone or I won't get service with it in the future.
