    Mystery Box of Tech Accessories

    Here is what was in was in one of my Mystery Tech Accessories Boxes. It seems sometimes iDeals offers a $20 box and a $40 box. I bought two $20 boxes. Since in one of the reviews I read, a customer complained that they ordered two boxes at the same time, and that each box contained exactly the same thing, none of which they could use. So I ordered two boxes from two different sales, probably about two weeks apart. Turns out I only got two duplicates. A sort of worthless (to me any way) mini 'store card' organizer and a magnetic LED light to stick on metal tools. That's not too bad. I'm keeping one and I gave one away. The only other things I might be able to use is the non-branded external battery charger, which we found out sells for about $10. And a Bluetooth Music Receiver, which is online for $7. There was also a lot of useless cable and 30-pin Apple stuff in the box, which is worthless to me. So, it's not a rip-off as some reviewers say, but I think you'll save money by buying exactly what you need instead of hoping to 'strike it rich' with one of these boxes. Box of mystery  tech accessories is not always available, but you can check here from time to time, or sign up for their email list.
