Weird how the font got more comments here than the actual product. Anyway, I bought one online last year. It was cheap enough (half this price) that I took the risk, though it took more than two months until it arrived.
It’s a neat little desktop toy, with little real use except showing off. Although it is magnetic all the time, it needs power to create the point of equilibrium where the globe will float without either falling or sticking to the magnet. It has a very narrow sweet spot. Expect it to stick to the top of the magnet a lot until you get it right. My biggest challenge was to get it to spin while staying in the sweet spot. When I managed to get it to spin about once per second, it kept spinning for about half an hour until it slowed down so much that it just started bobbing back and forth, another half hour until it had come to a complete rest. I was a little disappointed that there clearly was a little imbalance that made it bob back and forth rather than just slowing down until it stopped, but I don’t know if that was just mine.
