Nope!!! A lot of electrical / electronics coming from China have the CE mark, when even a cursory inspection shows that it is of lower quality and the mark is a fake.

Even BIG retailers have been caught by this here in Spain. And to buy from a market / Chinese retailer is sheer lunacy. I've had dangerously faulty CE marked Chinese goods from Carrefour the big French hypermarket.

Maybe it is different in the UK.

But is it really worth risking your £150+ reader by saving a few cents ?
