Exactly right, no matter what the shop or web site may be, the chances of
getting the right one are pretty rare.

It has always been an issue that powe supplies are a source of recalls.
Back
in the 80s Sinclair computers had to recall them due to them failing in a
rather smelly way, then there were those little colour televisions which
managed to weld the psu to the coffee table as they were made for the
Algerian market and not the Eu and thus ran hot.
Many third party usb chargers have gone bang or come apart allowing
people to touch the live connections.
Dell had some psus where the dc side of the cable was over welded at the
strain relief and actually caught fire when it shorted out.
I'm sure there are other horror stories out there.

Recalls on Tablets, Surface pro and Pro 2 and Pro 3, power cord/power
supply overheating issues. In case you use one of those gadgets? I use
my
ever so luverly Asus Chromebox hooked up to a Samsung Tee Vee, it works
fast, just like greased lightnin. I never have any problems with it.
Google,,, Recalls

Blind user, so no pictures please!

If your device came with a power supply and you need to replace it,
allways buy the exact same kind of power supply. Don't buy that off the
wall brand name crap.
