People do. But they shouldn’t. Both the times I fixed that clock not only did it save me money, but time. Taking it apart and fixing it and putting it back together took less time than driving to Target and buying a new one. And it means I got to see how a clock works and can clearly identify everything in the pencil case as standard digital clock parts.
Edmunds Scientific is nice. But WAY more expensive. This was at most a $20 clock and $10 pencil case. And it’s more fun to work it out yourself from scratch.
And I am telling you, this was not a clock.
This was a test to see what they can get away with.
