Update on my missing package: it's being shipped back to China, for some reason. I opened a dispute for a full refund, since the tracking proves that it's going back. It seems quicker to do that and then re-buy the same item than to wait for it to arrive in China and have it mailed to me again.

Facebook Aunt posted:If it's any consolation the pictured melons are an art project and the listing is a scam. There are melons that basic shape, but they are green and don't have nipples. The scam is that you'll receive some sort of melon/squash/gourd seeds but you won't be able to tell that the plants don't grow boobies for months, and by then buyer protection has run out. Also I don't know the buyers would complain to AE that their melon boobs don't look good enough

I posted a while back, the Bluedio T7 I ordered actually just arrived they are charging now (usb-c). I will update tonight on sound and battery and all the tech stuff. Initial impressions are very positive, packaging is a+ and they feel very well made, especially for what I paid. I have some i10tws AirPod clones on the way but will be another 2 weeks probably. You probably want to get the newer ones that clone the w1 chip if you have iPhone.

Yeah. When it takes long enough for your orders to arrive, it’s like they are gifts from someone else. It’s great. The shirt-like package, which seemed a bit too stiff and thick to be a shirt, was not a shirt. It was a pair of storage containers I bought for various electronics. The small package was more storage containers for SD cards. Lol at those internal colors. The SD card holders are reeeeal cheap. I paid a little under $2 each. I think a couple of drops of super glue will improve them quite a bit. I think they’ll be fine as long as they don’t get opened and closed every day. The cases are cheap, but I paid $8.50 for the big one, which has a pocket for my iPad, and $2.50 for the smaller one. The internal zippers are definitely brittle, but the outside ones are surprisingly decent. They’re maybe 1/2 the quality of ones you’d buy at Best Buy or Microcenter, but they’re also 1/3rd or 1/4th the price.

Just to make a small contribution to the thread, I recently got a USB to 3DS charger cable as well as a DS to USB charger cable. Both of them have worked fine, and now I have a nifty way to recharge my 3DS the next multi-hour power out or road trip.

Same. I'm especially fond of the irrelevant or utterly nonsensical descriptions on the customs labels. 'Beach scarf' is not how I'd describe a nerf gun magazine.

Let's say I grab a coupon with my coins. If I go to buy something less than the coupon amount, does Ali save the extra coupon amount for later? Part of me thinks I should save up for the $12 coupon, and part of me knows in my heart that I'm only buying $2 worth of poo poo at a time.

Part of me thinks I should save up for the $12 coupon, and part of me knows in my heart that I'm only buying $2 worth of poo poo at a time. You can only use coupons for purchases above some amount. It varies from store to store, but a $12 coupon will require a purchase of $100+. Typically small coupons can be used for small purchases. The select coupons are nearly useless and can very rarely be used.

OK review time: Bluedio T7 over ear headphones with ANC (noise canceling) Build quality and function A+. ANC works great testing at house, should be good on airplanes to block engine noise. USB-c not micro which is a big plus. If battery holds up anywhere near claimed 40 hours heck I’d be happy with 12-20. Now these probably aren’t for audiophiles, I am more than pleased but they don’t get crazy loud and the bass doesn’t seem off the charts. For my purposes watching videos and playing music while traveling great for me. Music auto pauses when removed and starts again when you put back on. Voice commands work great. So for me I highly recommend (especially bc I paid $36 with a new user coupon). Will wait and see on the i10tws AirPod clones, they should be exact size as real AirPods I bought ones linked from YouTube reviews that were highly favorable (some with 1-2 million views).

I will definitely post when I get an extended time with them, might be able to get 1-2 hours straight one night this week but Easter weekend if I go out of town may get a solid 3+ hours and be able to report back.

I am going to risk some cash and buy a fine leather bag from Ali. I'm in the $40-$100 range. Open to canvas as well. I need to upgrade my current messenger into a serious commuting man bag. Anybody have any advice on what to look for? I'm putting more stock into photos of a factory or work place taken at different times. What should I focus on to dismiss low quality bags?

Usually the pictures are accurateish, albeit glammed up a lot. Also, everyone steals these pictures from each other. Look for cheap stuff, and anything in the midrange or higher end with the same picture will be the same item. Look for "different" in some way. Source: have bought like, three items worth more than $50, and have been satisfied

The most important thing is to check for reviews with photos, generally that will filter out listings that might be selling low quality imitations of the real items in the photos.

I got the Bluedio T6S a few days ago. They do a good job of keeping out sounds even without the noise cancelling turned on. Turning it on gets creepy quiet. Sound quality is pretty decent, and they've synched up fine with a couple of bluetooth devices. As with the above, they don't get super loud. Nitpick:l the big one is no aux input. The USB C port can be used, but judging from online complaints you have to get a specific 3.5 mm to USB C cable that can convert the audio. And only Bluedio makes one. You can get it on Amazon for under $15, iirc. Still, with it being a proprietary cable, it should have been in the box to begin with.
