I bought a wireless lav mic on ebay for about $10. It feels very flimsy
(the battery compartment is hard to snap close), there's writing in
Chinese and Russian on the transmitter, but it's always performed well at
distances of up to 20 feet (haven't tested it above that). The sound is
still better than an expensive camera-mounted shotgun mic, and I don't
have to lug around my heavy boom mic stand (or an even heavier boom
operator).
I definitely recommend it for people who want to see whether wireless
lavs are suitable for their needs before investing in pricy units.
