why the hell do the pound shops sell tools that don't work. eg. screw drivers that twist before the screw turns. saws that go blunt half way through a cut.
i think its for people who don't do DIY. so it looks like they do.
surely if the manufacturers spent a little more pence, they could make tools that actually work.
this has been pickling me for ages. anyone else feel the same or had similar problems?
BLAKSPUR TOOLS SUCK!

no wonder they keep producing them if people say, its only a pound right?
they must make a mint from chocolate tools. i bought them for a 1 job mission and they still couldnt do the job.

The stuff they sell is c**p. Don't buy it, don't go to those shops and put them out of business, it is a con aimed at people that don't have much money and can least afford to lose it.

You get what you pay for it!
Don't buy the tools then, if it can from a Pound shop what do you expect?

At least you've only wasted £1 to find it out though - right?!

If you want quality you have to pay for it.
