    I bought these in August 2019 and they are the bees knees, pardon the pun.
    They have a light sensor so they come on automatically when it’s dusk and turn off at dawn and have a single rechargeable AA NiMH battery inside which can be easily replaced.

    They were put away in winter 2019 and I had forgotten about them til a few moths ago.
    To my surprise when I switched them on the battery had kept its charge and they lit up, that’s without a year and a half of use!
    It’s been pissing rain all day today and they’re lighting as I speak, so the solar panel really does it’s job.

    The only con is that they look a bit plasticky and tacky in daylight when they’re off but they have a nice “warm yellow” at night time, different to warm white.

    They also have about 8 different sequence modes like Christmas lights. Hope this helps.

    The 1MB is definitely a typo, cards that small have not been made in years.

    I’d imagine it’s a pretty slow card at that price though.

    Thanks, this swayed my decision, worked out at €9.70 on Revolut, so an even better deal than the OP gave themselves credit for!

    They have an on switch and a mode switch at the back of the solar panel.

    So be sure to turn the switch on and cover the panel / sensor with your hand to see if they come on if it's not dark yet.

    I bet someone gave them negative reviews because they didn't realise you need to turn them on!

    If you keep trying at random times it should work, seems like its a site wide issue with amazon for people in the uk too.

    found a way around it. Just open browser in incognito mode and log on to Amazon again, search for an item and click Buy now

    Just bought the socks for £6.66, no issue with delivery

    Did the socks raise in price? They're £10 or £6 depending on the size you choose

    didn't work for me (on edge and chrome browsers)

    American crew stuff arrived. Poorly packaged though. In their folded brown envelope things. Kits are in a metal tin, lids had popped of both and shampoo bottles fallen out. Lids were very slightly loose on both bottles and leaked a bit.

    They sent two of the shampoo and forming cream though when I had ordered one of each with the Fibre and 3 in 1 shampoo. I'll get on to chat later.

    I think Amazon in general is having issues today with many products, many people on HUKD are getting the same "this item cannot be shipped to your selected delivery location" error message for certain items.

    Ordered this hair clippers.

    Hopefully it's decent, just want it for my face/body.

    I've had a battery wahl beard trimmer and it's not very powerful. Hoping being wired gives more oomph
