    Would you buy this?

    Ammo have released a paint shaker, it's not cheap at just under £40, I will probably stock a couple of them, but I can't see it being a big seller, but I have been wrong on things in the past, is this something you would consider buying?

    This is only for market research, I'm not asking you to commit.

      Looks very like this, apart from the price....it’s a nail polish shaker from eBay for around 17ukp....seen identical ones up to about 45 though....

          Not at that price John. Far cheaper products out there and even cheaper home made bodge-it items. I'd love to have one but i have other things i could spend that money/put towards on/to

            Only if there was a device to unscrew the lid and another to put it back on again. Sorry John, I wouldn't buy it - seems really OTT.

              Got to agree with the guys John. I bought one that looks identical to that for about £20.

                  Thanks, my initial thoughts were right, I thought it was expensive, I can't see me stocking them, I new there wasn't just made for them, but I didn't think it was a nail varnish shaker

                    You could always get the manufacturers to put your logo on it, undercut Ammo, and still make a few quid John :thumb2:

                        I've found someone on youtube with the nail varnish shaker, it does work.

                          No sorry John, A nice little tool but I think you would be paying for the name not the product.

                            I paid £11 delivered for a nail varnish shaker, that looks exactly like that Ammo one.

                              I too got a nail varnish one from Amazon, looks exactly the same but had the nice pink logo thingy on the front until I pulled it off

                              It takes different size bottles and does seem to work rather well

                              £40 is a right rip off
