Only things I've bought so far are cheap electronics which I've been to lazy to test. You only have 15 days to make sure your poo poo isn't broken after saying it arrived but I figure at these prices I can take the hit.Pick posted:

Gable Oak posted:Well, then I have no idea what I did to piss off the gods of Chinese exports. :-(. Mine just says, "For security reasons this process can not be continued.To make sure your transaction is secure, please provide us with documentation by clicking My Appeal for further verification." Documentation being crazy phishing-sounding things like, "take a photo of your credit card, driver's license, and bank statement." I am 100% certain it's legitimately AliPay, but I'm not sure if it's more or less comforting that only a subset of us are getting selected for further documentation. I had that when a transaction wanted to use SMS authorisation, I thought it was a phishing link and so ignored it multiple times. No way I was giving up that info so I just tried again from a different vendor selling the same poo poo and it went through fine.

They're cheaper than the 2 DIN DIY hobby kits, tempted to buy one just for parts.

Pick posted:Those are underwear a person wears because they want good underwear and might not, gasp, care about your penis this second. That's what normal women's underwear looks like. Should upgrade to boyshorts or something so you'll never again have elastic riding up your inner thigh or butt cheeks IMO. As a man(so YMMV) the change was a spiritual experience.

Police Automaton posted:A lot of the stuff on aliexpress is exactly (and I mean 100%) exactly the same stuff I can buy locally. (just locally it's sometimes a lot more expensive) It really is the same stuff. If It's bad for your health then the stuff here is too. One of my local dollar stores got busted for selling dangerous kids toys and other stuff.

Speaking of packaging I love some of the ingenuity that goes into it with AE type stuff. A CPU in an envelope with a single stamp? Hell yeah. Meanwhile crap from elsewhere comes with cubic metres of bubble wrap and packing peanuts, all I think about when looking at it is yep, that's why it cost me $20 for the delivery.

Clayton Bigsby posted:I don't loving understand how Lidl can often make decent stuff for very cheap. Bought a nice bamboo cutting board for 99 SEK (around 12 bucks) and it's been great. Cost 4x that in a "regular" store. A lot of the stuff they sell is on a yearly loop where they have a decent idea on how well it'll sell and they're fine with things selling out quickly. They can make a bulk order at a discount and then sell everything so there's little overstocking issues.

I want to switch from my beat up old aluminium one to stainless steel, but I'm not sure whether the heavy metals from AE percs are likely to be worse than the slow aluminium poisoning I'll get from my existing one. Aluminium poisoning from cookware isn't really a thing, I wouldn't worry about it.

I almost always go with the most popular seller even if it's a bit more, those $1.12 items with 3 sales just look shady as hell when someone else has sold 12k for $9.81.

no pubes yet sorry posted:I am pretty sure the consensus for electronics is "be really loving careful" when it comes to poo poo you plug into the wall on Ali. Xiaomi is a fairly decent brand and I'd be fine with plugging their poo poo into the wall. I'd probably buy the soundbar through Banggood or similar though since I couldn't find their store in my 10 seconds of searching Ali. That said no idea if their soundbar is any good because all the reviews I saw came from dubious sites.

The only thing they seem to have in common with the originals is the bottle shape and the floral themes; the scents are different. I purchased the "Stamen Love" variety. Will update how it smells when it arrives. I am the sole order. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/May...2961402284.html Guessing your user name will prove accurate when it arrives.

Original_Z posted:How ironic that we've now gone back in technology for a lot of people in that regard. The whole point of the wristwatch was so people wouldn't have to pull out a pocket watch when they wanted to check the time. It's funny that wristwatches were women only devices until some big war showed them to be more practical. That's probably why most expensive mens watches are all about what bad-rear end men wear while being bad-asses rather than something less gaudy and gently caress off huge.

Carrion Luggage posted:I do not wear a watch but I have gotten to a point in my life that I would like easy access to information at a glance without taking my phone from my pocket, like heart rate and O2 (doesn't seem (m)any do this), as well as sleep tracking without buying super pricey equipment. I was looking at getting a smart watch but there seem to be so drat many makers and models out there. O2 requires you to sit super still for a measurement, if they take readings while you're doing stuff they'll be highly inaccurate. If you've got a medical condition that requires you to check spO2, it's probably just as easy to get a cheapy that goes on your finger.
