If they were genuine I'd expect to see them being sold by lidl themselves, not some dogy geezer on face ache

The entirity of faceache arsebook is a scam.

Fixed that for you.

Generally the tools are sub £30 in shop, when they do them.

I get these on FB and the site is very genuine looking, even when you click through. The site address isn't a Lidl name when you look at the www. address though and when you go round the site non of the info looks genuine and info is missing. Superficially they are convincing. I report these type of adverts to fb but they never do anything.

Also, for any selling website look for the padlock in the web address window.

ah the padlock , yes admit I forgot all about that , could nt understand why they would be advertising and posting stuff out when they have stores nation wide , prices too good to be true , hence the question .thanks for confiming guys.

I've been looking for a spotting scope to avoid reducing my garden to a quagmire when doing a bit of paper punching and saw a lidle scope on Ethingy and thought for £25 it was worth a try . It came in original Lidle wrapping and undamaged and was I presume a "return" being resold by a 3rd party. They had various Lidle items for sale . As expected it was worse than useless . I was tempted to mount a plastic milk bottle on the neat tripod that came with it .

You're supposed to remove the front lens cap when trying to spot with the scope.

It was actually clearer WITH the lens cap on at least the darkness was uniform.

Why would you bypass the Lidl 3 year warranty? They sell most battery bare tools for £30 anyway

this was with battery and charger sub £30 , which as its too good to be true why I asked the question ..

Many thanks for the generous offer but I've got one on it's way from a friend who I've done a couple of small welding jobs for. Thanks again.
