Facebook Aunt posted:It's pointless to try to bundle. The UPU cheap shipping only covers packages up to a certain size and weight, so if you're package is bigger than the limit the shipping costs jump. I've bought too many of an item from a shop and split it into two orders because shipping was cheaper that way. Buy 2 of this thing and shipping is free, buy 4 of the thing and there is a charge for shipping, unless you make 2 2-thing orders. Fascinating, thank you. That seems like info to add to the OP, maybe? Or as part of a "how to AE" section. Pick? I just thought, hey, it might not save them anything but it might be worth it from a sustainability standpoint... norp posted:I hope you luck out on this one. Polyurethane would be okay, as long as it gives me a look other than "I'm wearing an obvious fitness tracker" at weddings or whatever. I guess I could skip a day, but my stats!!

I hate to break it to you, but this is the AliExpress Thread where people order useless stuff that contains all manners of toxic substances from China. A cardboard box is as sustainable as it gets. But you'll probably receive an abomination of black shrinkwrap packaging anyway.

Butts ethically sourced from bespoke rear end farms managed by fair trade booty farmers. No cellulite was harmed in the shaping of the idealized badonkadonk images on the stickers.

All Western civilization will be wiped out by the crop diseases dumb-rear end goons introduced by importing loving seeds from Aliexpress.

Buying Chinese-made stuff that has been shipped by the shitload in sea containers is all around better than having them shipped singly by air mail. But then you'd actually have to walk* to a shop and that's horrible. *) Or drive if you're American or from the countryside.

Cosmic Web posted:My girlfriend loves this swamp cooler. These things apparently are the perfect breeding ground for mold, so I doubt it'll be here after summer if I can't find a replacement filter. 90° angle? Anhydrous automatic shut off? Sign me the gently caress up! Seriously though this is tempting, I sleep better with a humidifier running. A full review and pics of the filter would be appreciated.

huhwhat posted:Why yes, let me, a poor, pay for the huge markups for the privilege of obtaining goods in-person (yes I'm aware that renting and keeping a place lit is costly). Uhh because shops buy bulk from Alibaba, not Aliexpress, they pay less than 10% of what you pay so even with a huge mark-up the price is about the same. Many "everyday" non-bootleg non-pirated non-illegal things I've looked at cost more on Aliexpress than local shops. (Aliexpress prices have noticeably been going up up up in the past year or so.) e: I juest ordered these metal feet and tag holders for a project because I haven't been able to find anything similar here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NED...2575523965.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10p...2744958990.html 3D Megadoodoo fucked around with this message at 12:15 on Jul 6, 2018 |

I've been trying to find some baseball style (ie, 3/4 sleeve) shirts on AliExpress. I'm not sure what to enter for search terms though. "Baseball" gives actual jersey and "3/4 sleeve" doesn't give many worthwhile results. Are they just not popular or is there another obvious name that I'm missing? Like I'm seeing boring stuff like this poo poo. Anyway here's another shirt I found.
