1st-Amendment on [eBay Plus] Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2 4-Pack (2 Black + 2 White) $97.50 Delivered @ digiDirect eBay / smarthomestoreau eBay

Update the firmware. I haven't had this problem.

superuser on [eBay Plus] Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2 4-Pack (2 Black + 2 White) $97.50 Delivered @ digiDirect eBay / smarthomestoreau eBay

So in your view, the absence of software updates makes something better?

jeworge on [eBay Plus] Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2 4-Pack (2 Black + 2 White) $97.50 Delivered @ digiDirect eBay / smarthomestoreau eBay

I second this. The extra smarts make it useful when it isn't lost, and the design makes it easier to attach to keys, bags, etc.

I doubt it. MyDeal is Woolies-owned, I believe, but ultimately it's a marketplace with no physical stores.

It depends on your POV re: handing over $150+ for a recycled plastic garment, and why you'd be doing it.
