I used to keep a box of Swan Vestas ("The Smoker's Match"), because striking them on the wall or the surface of a table looks cool. Unfortunately they've changed them into ordinary strike-on-box matches recently, which is much less fun. Something to do with the cost of shipping the ingredients used in the strike anywhere formula.

I have a bunch of Russian matchboxes (with Russian matches therein!) because the "domestic" Sampo ones (really made in Sweden I think, but it's an old Finnish brand) are just so feeble. One time I decided to try striking a Sampo on a Russian matchbox and it flared up to such a degree I almost dropped it. I guess I should've known it's the striking surface that makes the difference, not the head, but I'd never thought about it. Anyway: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002640510854.html e: Oh hey I guess Sampo matches are made by the same company as Swan Vestas. Ironic, considering they were originally a response to the Swedish match industry (whose agents kept sabotaging Finnish match factories etc.) 3D Megadoodoo fucked around with this message at 23:01 on Aug 19, 2021 |

Ali watch stuff Basically Casio released a new g shock during the pandemic called ga2100. It looks like the uber fancy PA royal oak and it became a hot seller. So metal kits showed up on aliexpress that let you mod the watch to look even more like the royal oak. I already knew the metal bracelet is too heavy and big for my taste, so I only got the metal bezel version. Here is what it looks like with the brushed metal bezel and nato strap adopter, on the right. On the left is the a fake bootleg I also got on aliexpress for $35. I buy a lot of g shock modding accessories on ali. It's very rare to see ali sell actual bootleg with casio branding on it. I just want to get one to see what the quality is. It's okay. About 90% like the real thing. It's thicker and the glass is not scratch resistant, but the movement itself is about on par. However its glass and the bezel is glued into one piece, I can't couple the metal kit on it like the real thing. So I blacked out the branding and swapped the nato mod on it.

Willing to admit I am the weird one here, but I just really enjoy the scent of a freshly struck match. I am always burning unscented dollar-store candles just for an excuse to strike one. My roommate, who does not understand, keeps buying me different types of lighters and scented candles for birthdays/Xmas. So as not to be completely off thread topic, has anyone bought decorative unscented candles from Ali? I figure they must be from the same source as the plain white tealights I get at the dollar store, but maybe there's something fancier out there?

Match smell lovers should try palo santo. If matches are vanilla ice cream, palo santo is vanilla bean ice cream.

I recently ordered this e-scooter, in gray and shipped from Poland (I'm in the EU). I was looking every few days, and it did not get shipped. Then, when the shipping window closed, I went to send a message to the seller to ask what's up - only to find that there were several messages per day from the seller saying "we're out of gray, is red ok?". Now, I got 0 notification of these messages, even though the single "email notification" setting is "enabled" in my AliExpress settings. So now, I need to wait until I get my refund and re-order, and the item listing says "no longer available". I can not find this model in the store listing any more... I mean, the listing's there, just that the item page says "not available". I guess I missed my chance for one of these?

do you get any aliexpress emails at all? maybe they got spam filtered https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001196771332.html is the same bike but twice the price it looks fun, but not $1000 fun with a recommended max weight of 75kg i'm much too fat to ride one anyway

r u ready to WALK posted:do you get any aliexpress emails at all? Yep, I get other AliExpress emails, even ones I'd like to opt out of - but there is no more granular control than just "emails on/off", and apparently, there's no notification for message center messages even if email notifications are on :/ Yeah there's other listings of the Himo H1, like this one, with a wonderful fake price in the listing image: My cancelled order was for $633 incl. shipping, which is about the maximum I'm willing to spend. That seller also at least claims to be the brand's "Official Store".

I hope it comes back in stock soon (at a more reasonable price).

Hirayuki posted:Do you use the app at all? I get push notifications and messages in the app that never show up on the site unless I go digging for them. Even then they're usually marked as being for a different version of the message center or some such nonsense, and I'm directed to read them in the app. No, but it's good to know that the "read in app" messages are shown even in the app... I have lots of those in my inbox, and I've wondered what I would see if I used the app. I found a listing on eBay for this scooter, but it's still 150€ more than the deal that fell through... I'll have to think about it, at least. I'm hoping the Ali seller will respond and/or put the item back on sale, so that I can get it that way.

I've had a TON of messages slip through the cracks that way, I have never in my life been notified that a seller messaged me something I actually wanted to know. Trying to turn on notifications of any kind just gets me fake deal alerts and still doesn't tell me when a seller messages me directly. It's the jankiest aspect of an already jank website.

Tealights are meant to be unfancy, it's the holders that can be as fancy as you want. Check Ikea, they have loads of cheap candles.

Every electric powered personal transportation vehicle comes from China via mail order (until its over $3000 and comes with a Germany Bosch drivetrain). I wouldn't buy that micro bike though. I rather get a electric kick scooter that can fold up much more compact when you are not using it. If you really want a seat there are scooters that come with detachable seat.

Ali has a ton of silicone molds for candles and the like, and basic candle wax + wicks are pretty common to find in hobby shops. If you just look up stearin for candle making you can buy it by the kilo, melt it down and dump it into a mold of your choosing. But yeah if you just want basic tealights, Ikea and the like sells like 100-packs or whatever for pretty reasonable prices.
