Is this real?
It looks exactly like the one Dave uses (which I couldn't find anywhere else except here) but it is really cheap. Is it fake?
Price was $31.99 at the time.
They are all around 55-65$, free shipping. Because China. Since buyers not accustomed to China merchandise (from eBay, AliExpress, DealExtreme) expect to pay a decent amount for shipping (15-20$), China considered splitting the total cost in a "reallistic" shipping cost. Some sellers go for 40$+20$ shipping, others for 30$ price + 30$ shipping, whatever works and thus makes the product look cheaper (e.g. 30$ instead of 60$). Bear in mind though, even if shipping cost is 30$, it's not DHL Express, it's China Post, it WILL take weeks and it DOES cost 2-5$ for them to ship it.
So when you actually buy a "30$" hot air station
(and pay 30$ for S&H), don't be amazed if 2 weeks later it hasn't arrived, there's no tracking number and the seller responds in Chinglish. What you actually bought is a 55$ hot air station and paid 2$ for S&H. So expect 2$ worth of customer service. Now don't get me wrong, I love China and the cheap stuff, but be sure you know what you're paying for, be it product or shipping.
