NOT the gorillapod.
And crappyline sucks. Everything I've bought from them has died. Sometimes DOA, sometimes a month or two. Only Ben and the ignorant keep Crappyline alive. Please, if you must blow $5 here, just send it to me, and I will send you a random picture cut from the newspaper, or an original or copied haiku. You will be happier. And if you don't like the picture or my poem, you can stick a fork in your eye, and you will still be happier than if you engaged in commerce with crappyline. Really, haven't you sent enough money to the shifty, cheap Chicoms? Don't test their ability to adulterate a tripod. The pictured item is proof that they found a way to hide mercury or other heavy metals in the plastic, shipped here to be discarded in our landfills to pollute our water supply. Man, they don't think on a 3-month cycle, they plan on a 30-year cycle. When they stop buying US debt, they will still have to employ Chinese because idle hands are revolutionary hands. So they will force production of these gizmos, and send these free as goodwill tokens to the glorious American peoples. See, you didn't want anything from Crappyline, anyway. Go buy a real gorillapod. And tell crappyline that ralphk917 told them to go copuleight themselves.

be careful with the knockoff they are very very weak in comparison to the real deals.

I have ordered several items from Meritline, all arrived quickly and worked OK.

For price comparison the plain Gorillapod on Amazon is $22. A point and shoot camera would probably be OK with the Meritline model. If you have a larger pro camera then Gorillapod has some heavy duty models that would be a better investment, running from $40 to $50.

Well I, and others, have ordered from them and had them overcharge, deliver the wrong item, and found it necessary to dispute the charge with my credit card company, and contact the CA Attorney General's Office. This store is, .... to search for a relatively polite word, staffed by the cesspool feeders.
