The cost-of-living crisis is driving more people to buy second-hand appliances, but only 20% would bother to take the simple safety step of registering that appliance.

It's free to register home appliances – both new and second-hand – via amdea.org.uk ‡️

#Dropshipping shops can charge you high prices for low-quality clothing items by using AI photos which don’t match the real product.
