My Kate Spade knock off DUSUN Rivet Personality Dinosaur Design Fashion Leather Crossbody Mini Messenger Bag Women Chain Purse Female Shoulder Bag Gift came in today.
Despite being a bit squashed, I'm actually impressed by how well made it is. I wouldn't pay the usual $50 for it over Ali, but for the sale price of $24 it's a steal.

It smells of dubious chinese manufacturing chemicals, so I suppose I'll hang him outside overnight so I don't gas myself to death.

Goddamn you! My New Years resolution is to not buy anymore shoes or bags and I’ve wanted this one foreeeeever. But I guess if I originally liked the bag in 2018 then it doesn’t count as breaking my resolution right? Because technically it’s shopping from last year.

That store has quite a few knockoffs that look decent. And the promise of getting high on Chinese manufacturing chemicals just sweetens the deal.

Agreed. I want this bag so much even though I'm not cute enough (or goth/punk enough) to use it. Buy it for me because I know it'll just sit in my closet. (And don't buy the gun one; it's funny but it gives me the willies.)

I've seen them in junk stores here labeled as candy making machines (with pics of kids on the box) I don't know if they're legal or not but I guess someone makes chalk candy with them.

The motorcycle levers i ordered off Ali for a whole $5 arrived. In 7 days. Amazing.

Unfortunately, the fit and finish is real bad compared to the ‘good’ ones I ordered a few months ago, and I’m pretty sure the clutch lever isn’t the model I was looking for (my bike has some weird jumble of parts from China, trying to find out what).

With a bit of loctite and filing they’d be serviceable parts... ish.

I don’t think you need to be goth/punk or have a particularly quirky style to carry the dino bag. The black one is nice because it’s just the right amount of weird for me.

I am getting a refund on my watch, I straight skipped talking to the seller and opened a dispute right away. I didn't provide any evidence at first, so they initially rejected it and said to provide a video demonstrating the problem and using the charger on another device, etc it nothing too unusual. I'm not even sure the seller saw the dispute, at least if they did they didn't respond or challenge the disoute in any way and I was notified this morning that Ali is going to issue a refund.

Thus far, this is only the second dispute I've had to do, ironicy both are watch related. The first dispute happened because the seller marked it shipped but never shipped it, after 2 weeks the tracking said shipment cancelled and the seller didn't respond to me contacting them, that dispute was settled within 24hrs (I only had to post a screenshot of the tracking) and the seller then left negative feedback for me as a buyer. What could happen if more sellers left negative feedback about me? I have only had it happen once for the first watch, and I suspect it could happen again after this dispute, I'm not trying to scam people I just want products that function without starting unwanted fires.

It sounds like he created a successful legitimate business more than a MLM considering all money funnels towards the boss and the people below him dont have a level of people below them Any referrals report to him not the person who brought them in. An actual product is being sold to people who know what they are buying. His margins are so good that he can have what appear to be generous recruitment offers.

As long as he is not making fraudulent health claims, you are free to sell whatever quackery you want to willing customers.

yeah probably not. The actual companies themselves are usually careful enough to not make any claims beyond, "this thing promotes wellbeing."
