Sometimes I get bored and open a fresh private browser window and click on the first category that aliexpress recommends.

And sometimes that category is something I really couldn't ever imagine buying on aliexpress.
like: Human Hair Wigs With Baby Hair Highlight


It's not as weird as you might think. A lot of high end wigs are made with actual human hair, needing several heads worth of hair to make a single one.

And if you got long hair you wanna get rid of, you could look into selling it, or donating it to a place that makes wigs for people suffering from cancer.

Yeah, I know. I even donated hair once already. But it is not a product I would trust aliexpress with.

How many loving email addresses does aliexpress have to send out spam with? I'm trying not to block their entire domain because I want updates on actual purchases I make, but it seems like every day I'm having to tell gmail to send all mail from a new AE email address to the Promotions tab.

I don't think I've ever received an email from AliExpress that wasn't directly related to a purchase. Is there an option to unsubscribe from the emails or in your account settings?

Yes but it doesn't work. I've been using aliexpress for about 5-6 years and i've only started recieving spam mail from them for the past 6 months or so.

Yeah for me it's been the last couple of weeks. They've suddenly started using a range of email addresses presumably to bypass going to the promotions tab. There is an unsubscribe link though, so let's see if that makes a difference.

Any chance of a link? I'm sick of oiling mine and having to explain to my wife how you have to close the handle manually to even have a shot at opening the hatch again

Yeah no amount of "just push the handle back after opening it" got people to close it properly every time so I had no choice but to fix it.

Here you go: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001890789872.html?af=3964273_1&cv=38834990

74810-S6A-003 is the part number in case you want to search around but this seller was good. Just keep in mind that I haven't installed it yet so I can't really confirm that it replaces the OEM part perfectly. But it looks legit.

Haha yeah that happens, really frustrating when you first search for that thing with like 5 different terms and think you found the best. Usually though all those cheaper prices are fake - just applies to the xxs size, a completely different item, or the shipping is :20bux:

These would be cute stocking-stuffers; at US$5 apiece, they might not be cheap enough to give coworkers you don't otherwise care much about. You might have to pay a little in shipping to get them in time for Christmas, at least if you're in the States.

In 14 variations, including several cats (in a couple different poses), a panda, a duck, and a few sheep! I like felt coasters because they absorb without sticking to your glass, they're washable (if you're careful), and you can take a sweater shaver to them if they start looking a little worse for wear.
