I recently purchased a £99 'sungoldpower arc-200' welder from amazon for very tiny welding jobs. It worked just fine out of the box, but after using it a few times (a total of about 5 electrodes used in a 2 month period) it seemed to just stop working. I've contacted the seller and they are certain it is operating normally. Now I would expect that a welder this cheap will only perform very small tasks, but it only seems to work if I leave it for a week or two, it mostly just sparks a little bit or nothing at all.
Is the welder rubbish, faulty or is it something I'm doing wrong?
The link below shows a video of the problem I'm having (the welder had been switched off for a week before the video was taken)

I am new to welding and any help is much appreciated
