Solid and very usable.

Tempting deal!

By the time you add shipping and transfer fees, it's close to just buying in a shop

Probably goes bang though.

seen the reviews and almost didn’t buy, have 2 friends that have them and and really like them. Sounds like it takes a few rounds to break them in.
