Qvc seem to be obsessed with these products ATM (I'm talking about wallets which protect your contact less cards from being scanned through your wallet or bag.) They block 'RFID' chips in these cards...

Anyway last night they had on a new set of 3 floral metal wallets for £20 plus £4 pandp. They previously had a set of 2 animal print varieties for £18 plus post which get awful reviews...

Well I bought myself one from eBay for 99p (a uk seller, delivered in a few days) with FREE pandp!! It's still going strong so I just got my dad a silver one. Just thought I would post this in case I can save anyone from getting stung by qvc prices!! Just search metal wallet.
Don't think I'm allowed to post a sellers ID.
 
How do we really know, whether or not they work? Unless we have the facility to try and retrieve details from a card, of course.
 
I've got one too from Lakeland in the silver, still going strong after probably 10+ years
 
I saw them tested in a channel four programme about shoplifting!
But I didn't actually buy my bargain aluminium wallet for me or dad primarily for that function, but because they are solid, light and really protect your cards!

OH bought one on the market for a couple of pounds - same construction, plain silver, not as pretty as those on QVC but cost much less.
