I saw that last time they listed it for around $150 and thought it was interesting but these phones regularly sell for less the US$10 on eBay USA.

Thanks for the link - the US$3.99 is a bit more appealing price!

I'll have a think about it...

Are they really cheap quality or are they ok?

Plastic or die cast?
