Casio MS-8TV Desk Calculator For the last year or so I have worked full time selling on ebay, I started this up as a sideline initially but with the recession hitting my flooring business pretty badly, I found myself spending more and more time on ebay until it eventually became my full time job. I do all my own accounts for the business and keep a daily ledger so I know exactly where I am up to so a desk calculator is a must for me. I actually picked this up at a car boot sale a couple of years ago for 50p so it owes me absolutely nothing but I have seen it on ebay for £6.99 plus postage. Features This calculator is a pretty standard one ...  Read the complete review

~A handy desk top calculator~ ************************ I bought two of these desk top calculators for £1 each from a clearance stand in a well known household/ DIY store a few years ago and although I have misplaced my spare one (very typical) the one I have had in use on and off since I bought it is still going strong. I have found that the size of the calculator is about right as it is nice and chunky yet light to carry about from room to room when needed. The whole thing takes up less than half the space of a small sized place mat that you might use to set up your dinner table with, making it easy to use without taking up too much space. ...  Read the complete review

I am a trained accountant, although I don't now work in that field, so you might reasonably assume that I am good at mental arithmetic. Now this would be a mistake! Even when my mother was suffering with dementia her mental arithmetic skills remained very fast and very accurate but sadly I don't take after her! I have also found that, as I grow older, my eyesight is gradually getting worse and I don't see small figures or letters as well as I might. It was with these things in mind that hubby treated me to a decent sized calculator in the form of a Casio MS-8TV Desk Calculator, I have no idea how much he paid for it, as it is now a couple of years ...  Read the complete review

When it comes to a personal calculator all I want is something simple, some of my employment is on a self employed basis and so I have to keep accurate records for my accounts. I have noo need for a super complicated scientific calculator I just want one with all the basic arithmetic functions as well as a percentage key and that is more than enough for me. That is why this Casio is so great as it has a nice large display and also large number and key buttons as well so it cuts down the chances of making an input error. I paid under £10 for it from the bargain bin at Staples, I cannot remember the exact amount but it was certainly under a ...  Read the complete review

Casio was the typical brand of calculator used at my school when I was at high school a few years back and unless you had a Casio calculator you were pretty much given an instant detention at my school. It was pretty bad really given that there was absolutely no choice whatsoever but then I suppose it did add a level of uniformity to the classroom I suppose. This particular calculator was the one which we were expected to have in the first year of high school as it performs all the basic calculations needed. We weren't really allowed to use them but had to carry them around anyway. Because of this it was certainly a good thing that they are pretty lightweight ...  Read the complete review
