Fire Maple Petrol Stove for £18!

[mercurykev]

I saw this on aliexpress and thought some of you might fancy a punt on a £18 fire maple petrol camping stove. Sent from China but for that cash not a lot of risk involved. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Fire...table-hiking-picnic-oil-stove/2043645943.html

Fire maple are the company that make the alpkit stoves as well as stoves for a number of other manufactures. It's not cheap rubbish, here's the same stove on sale in the UK for £70 http://www.ultralightoutdoorgear.co.uk/fire-maple-m93

Aye you're right, i'v got some "keith" brand titanium pans that are the same as fire maple and alpkit

but having bought many things direct from china over the years. my experience of their quality control doesn't inspire much confidence
I'm afriad
