Maybe it is different in the UK.
But is it really worth risking your £150+ reader by saving a few cents ?

I don't get it: With that argument, even the more expensive CE marked and branded version could very well be a dud.
One could even argue that a lot more is to be gained by copying the branded accessories, rather than selling a no-name item for much less.
