So chang is willing to give a refund but wants me to give 5 stars before he sends the money. Do i accept it and if he doesn't send the money back i open a dispute or just tell him to fuck off and tell him to send the money first? First time i'm in this situation.
Ethan Hall
If your shit didn't arrive, I'm guessing he wants one of those five star "item didn't arrive but seller agreed to refund me". As long as you mention in the feedback that the seller is going to refund you, I don't think he could use that as evidence to fight a dispute.
But if the item arrived and is defective, I'd ask for the money first.
Item arrived and is defective and that's the problem here because if i give 5 stars then try to start a dispute then i'll look like an idiot is what i think and i possibly won't get the refund either.
Mason Martin
Yeah, in that case, money first.
Nolan Diaz
please understand

Are there any flashlights with a color temperature of 2500-3000 K?
Juan Taylor
Do you guys get feedback from the sellers after you have left feedback for them? I used to but havent had anything after the last half a dozen or so orders. There's nothing wrong with the feedback that I leave, btw.
not that guy but those are key extractors and levers (or cranks... I have no idea what the short metal bits used to cock up the lock are called in my language let alone english) I make do with tempered bobby pins, and it works good enough for a quick pick if user is still lurking for lockpicks I'd suggest (due to lack of knowledge about alternatives) to check amazon

What is your go-to purchase to buy on places like Ali? Things that are consistently cheap yet useful. I always buy some USB cables or port adapters with each purchase
Juan Cooper
What is some neat shit under $4 that is useful?
Jacob Edwards
I have 4 flashlights that are 2700K and 1 3000K from around 2014. These 5 flashlights are now my least favorite after I started buying high CRI 5000K~5500K tints.

>user follows the teachings of tiananon Nice.
Also no mousepads yet desu, used free shipping for each. Still waiting. Not buying anything on that account until I either get chinked or disappeared kek.
>remove one item from cart from one seller, should not affect anything else >total jumps by 200 Freedumb Bucks >shipping increases 3 fold >try increasing and decreasing qty of items in cart from same sellers >fixes it >set qty back to what I actually want >still fixed WAT So if I were retarded and just thought that price made sense, me get chinked long time?
Ever wonder if chang is watching /csg/ to keep tabs on the big dumdum laowais?
John Brooks
It's very slow. They sometimes relay packages through China Post (tracking is still from track.4px.com/query/) and those arrive pretty fast.

Why the Chink Shit Randomizer is down?
Jow Forums 10~20 dollars things to use my $4 coupon

>Why the Chink Shit Randomizer is down? Ali blocks iframes from showing its pages so no csr until the maintainer finds a workaround.
Hunter Murphy
Get it
I'm using the "open in new tab" button to see the products but it is a very boring method to seek some chink shit
Jack Rogers
>pay an extra 30c for Ali Standard Shipping >get Yanwen'd anyway fucking slopes
The only other alternative is to get an extension that blocks iframe rules. Both Chrome and Firefox have them. Beware though, when I tried this I noticed most of the shit in the randomizer hasn't been updated since it broke.
dear friends, I have 20 shekels to fuck around with
what do I buy?

Where I live they are replacing the sodium street lamps I've grown up with with shitty white LEDs. I usually like LEDs but it's completely ruined night time for me. I go on nightly walks and it depresses me, instead of an atmospheric night time vibe it just feels like a shittier day time.
I doubt it will help but I'm hoping for some kind of torch that can recreate the old aesthetic of sodium street lights.
That really sucks user. When I was drunk and depressed in high school, I used to stumble down the back roads and for some reason the color of the sodium lamps was comforting to me.
Isaac White
Anybody used chink shit for SMD work? I've only ever worked on THT parts and I'm looking to make some of my circuits a bit smaller desu.
>I imagine the electrolytics are gonna be the worst, but fine for simple hobby stuff. Yeah I definitely wouldn't use them in production stuff. Same with cheap Chinese trannies. You never know if what you're getting is actually close to it's rated voltage and specs.
I bet you could also find a good deal of Trump+Jesus stuff.
Christian Russell
i never really liked the sodium lamps, they always make my eyes and head hurt if i took a walk during night time in an area illuminated by those, dunno why. even the high wattage fluorescent stuff seemed to better light stuff and did not cause me any ailments, maybe i'm dysfunctional or some shit.

If it's got a lithium battery avoid it. You're just asking for trouble. The BYOB battery banks come in all different sizes and are just glorified battery holders+BMS+boost converters(i think, I haven't actually looked at one in depth.) You'd be using your own, QUALITY(PLEASE user, you may be autistic but in case you've not noticed this isn't Autism Speaks - you don't need to die.) cells in it. (imr has genuine stuff. they can also be salvaged from things like cordless drills, laptop batteries, etc) "DIY power bank" should have what you want
You could always check out some cheap components or supplies like copper clad board or perfboard, maybe pick up a nodemcu(few breads ago some user managed to turn his neighbors against each other with a wifi deauther kek) or some arduinos. Silicone insulated hookup wire is always nicer than PVC, and somewhat cheap, etc.
>csg >winnie the pooh Fucking based user. Jinping dislikes.
I'm looking to buy the K20/Mi 9T and it's currently at CAD $372 which is pretty good. Is xiaomi known to do good discount during the holidays or black friday?
TP Link Kasa. No hub or any bullshit needed. Cheap, but good quality. App works nice too.
Noah Phillips
Pro or no? I have the non-Pro version and it's excellent. Not sure the Pro is worth the extra money. In my experience, waiting on price drops for smart phones is a futile exercise as there is always something new to catch your eye. Just pull the trigger, it's a very capable phone.
Christian Morales
Non pro and yes it does seem like a fantastic piece of hardware for the price. I can't decide between black and blue though.
I love the look of the colored ones with the little strands of light in the fade but the black looks great too with that red button.

>cheap out on 3 bucks postnl and go for free shipping >wang sends it via postnl anyway
Luis Scott
Does anyone know where to find this clock/timer/temperature/alarm device? You use it by turning it to to the side according to a specified functionality. Saw it in some Youtuber's video. Thought it was neat.
Not chinkshit, but Sony MH755s are amazing. They cost like $15 and sound like IEMs that cost ten or fifteen times that. You just have to solder a new cable on.
Owen Perry
Oh my bad. I thought most reds were. Cheers for the links, user.
Nolan Hughes
You won't be able to find any decent mechanical keyboard cheaper than the Velocifire on aliexpress.
thanks! looks like it's the same price as the chinkshit that this user found on Ali. man.. this color scheme and text is retarded. those icons are so much nicer.
Recently I bought a R5 1600, a snowman cooler and a Rx 480 to build a PC from scratch. Rx 480 ran hot on oc but undervolts at 1025@800mv / 1250@1v which is really good, can't go higher than 1360 stable regardless of voltage Still testing R5 1600 but seems to oc Rock solid [email protected] (10 mins prime95) on Asrock b450 pro4. The snowman cooler is silent as fuck and keeps the CPU at 72°C on Aida64 stress. No good thermal paste though, I still haven't received the gd900. There is a Big "no no" though as the sellers often don't protect the cooler quite enough and there are some bend shims.
Angel Allen
link?
Nathaniel Collins
try to use the international version, have you tried closing the tab and paste the link again in a new one?

I removed cookies. now I'm back to normal. AE has some of the shittiest programming ever. I've encountered so many bugs while browsing and clicking on shit. not to mention that it's the only e-commerce site that doesn't have the NOT keyword in search. and has no advanced search options either. their programmers are monkeys.
just got the rope lighters I ordered back in june (lol 3 1/2 months) with ebay coupons. pretty neat
Ethan Carter
Still using an Aliexpress Skylake i7 CPU in my desktop. It was as described and still works fine after years of use at 1.38-1.4 volts. I paid 10% more to buy from a seller who tested each CPU and had near-perfect feedback.
