honestly I might end up just going without a case

rip

if it breaks I can just buy a new one

used my note3 without case, even when it got hit pretty hard and it also passed a bend test kinda.

dunno if a2 lite has good bend resistance

the trick when you get a high paying job is to keep living the chink shit life

the trick when you are a poor student like me is to buy chink phones for 180 dollars every 2 years

meanwhile the spoiled brats ask their mom for iPhone X and I just say whatever

@Dietrich Singpost why

dw bro you're gonna make it

yeah if I get a job

that spoilt brat is gonna be your kid one day 😏

@Tribit only option given by GB

same thing with everything on AliExpress

well sometimes they send by Sweden Post

My experience of SingPost. Pros: usually not so smashed up. Cons: not Prime Expres, so sent to your post office and need ID. Usually takes 2 weeks longer than all other carriers ++, usually the tracking fails national and it only shows up once it reaches destination.

crates nah his parents so rich he gonna go to America to finish his degree so who knows what he will do. sry for off-topic.

proof for @Tribit

if its a knife

DHL right there

DHL is like shooting myself in the foot

Not with the right store

You'd have that phone in a week and no customs costs

they only advertise no tax to EU, but I dont live in EU. Here DHL will guess the value of my item, then pay it in credits, afterwards they will send me the bill and demand me fees with rent for the credits.

DHL is sure taxation

@spaqin it's not

If you have a store that knows their shit

Like ibuygou

I hope it will go fine, I have a DHL shipment coming soon that I know will be taxed and I am just wondering what made up fees they will charge on it this time.

I never got offered this special shipping method, I think its because I am not in the EU my country do their own inspection @Tribit

some ali sellers, banggood even gearbest offers it under "European Express" its a hybrid between UPS, then DHL or Hermes etc

this right?

oh what could it be

Tin2 up

correct

o shit a pen

Is it even smart

yes it records everything you write down on your phone

do gearbest coupons still exist?

about to order mini quadcopter

Comfy died of lack of goybest coupons

RIP

so yea it was usually only for a specific product right

i remember buying my phone with a coupon

Ask Julian

He sometimes does it I think

@xaos which mini quadcopter

https://www.gearbest.com/rc-quadcopters/pp_1131446.html

but now ive gone to banggood and im looking again 🤔

im not sure what to get tbh

you know fpv stuff?

yeah i think ill go with this one

oof

what?

You can get better things for that money

yea come on help me out

is the eachine e010 the same?

the one i linkes is 16€ shipped 😬

(with 3 batteries)

https://www.banggood.com/Eachine-E010-Mini-2_4G-4CH-6-Axis-Headless-Mode-RC-Quadcopter-RTF-p-1066972.html

this one is 10€ and seems the same.. but im not sure charger is included and i dont really like the colors

You don't need three bateries for such a toy quad

actually looks liek it is

no?

but then i can only fly 5 minutes or so at a time

And?

Then you get two batteries

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Eachine-H8-Mini-Headless-RC-Helicopter-Mode-2-4G-4CH-6-Axle-Quadcopter-RTF-Remote-Control/32744422553.html

well i thought this eachine and furibee is the same chassis etc as those tiny whoop drones

so that i would very easily be able to mount a camera and do the fpv thing, which im mostly interested in

i think i prefer the ducted rotors

cause those on the h8 might break on a chair leg, you know?

Having spare batteries very handy

Flureon h22 for 9 aud were the good days

drones eh ?

don't these thing require going outside ?

no they are really tiny so you can fly inside

you can fly inside no problem

xmas time

ooooh nice open them!

that's a lotta packages

Whatcha got there, like faggot?

Three MiBand3 straps

3ds spare parts

And t2s

my disappointment is immeasurable and my day has been ruined

@Julian crossing my fingers here, but if I do get full tax it's okay since its only 50-60 dollars.

where are you from?

i ordered 500€ phone to germany paid 0 tax

from gearbest

you probably got german express

I cannot use this

I have to use normal registered airmail, and then I have to rely that they dont splerg all out and write 200 dollars as value on a 150 dollar item

because if they do oh boy I will have to pay more than its worth

what country?

Norway

no EU market, full tax border on all items.

well youre probably rich anyway lol

yeah totally rich boi

Its off-topic, but I have loans that are at 21k EUR now.

well gearbest has been pretty reasonable to me so good luck

thats a BIG oof

Yeah, that was why I ordered here, Lauri said that his phone got sent underdeclared, maybe they are just saying this to keep up face.

I also saw another one who posted in reviews it was declared as 100 USD, this is also acceptable since its not that bad. I have to pay a fee to pay taxes, this is the worst when it comes to chink shit.

You can end up with 50% of the item tax cost being the handling fee for collecting taxes of the postal company

25% tax I am fine with

when it comes to chink shit I think that in the future everything will be taxed through an online EU portal some years from now

well everything is more expensive up there so it would be sorta unfair if you had to pay the same there than you have to pay here

Well I am getting the A2 lite, it has warranty if I order it locally. Okay so let me explain the scenarios

a2 meaning phone?

1 I get chinkshit phone locally, its the 32GB ROM, 3GB RAM version, 230 euros. But I do get 2 years? probably 1 year local warranty,

like a xiaomi a2 is that a thing?

2. I get it at GearBest, the 64GB ROM and 4 GB RAM model. 152 euros, probably 50 eur in tax. so 200 euros.

So for a cheaper price, even if taxed, I get a phone with 1GB more RAM and 30 GB more ROM.

Yeah its a phone.

I guess I shouldnt be worried since thats fine.

I barely ever used warranties, trust the Xiaomi stuff to work as it should. Obviously me being a retard and dropping it isnt covered by warranty.

that said, I probably will use GB less if they splerg.

i have a mi mix 2 for almost 1 year now and its fine

even dropped it on day 2

Probably a good flagship phone.

well good luck on your order

thanks. For the record Germany is lucky in this. All of the big merchants offer German Express where they take care of taxes for you. Here its manual and outdated.

Checked my last GB order

They sent it with the legit value, but they checked the gift box...

this is contradictory to what their support said.

<:hms:311152554618912768>

probably just a happy little accident

dont get taxed below 40 dollars anyway

couldnt have foreseen that happening when they were making a statement on record on their wiki

I was scared when I got two routers worth 40 dollars from GB since thats just the limit, but turned up fine

ah well, I hope its just public apperance.

Will report back on it if anyone even cares. I mean, its not like a ton of people already did this. *they did, a lot of people bought phones from GB...

sure, good luck 😃

What 18650s for a long run time on convoy s2+/C8

30Qs

samsung

nice

@bap I got some Panasonic ones, NCR18650B, they are like 3400 mAh real capacity and the juice is so much I rarely charge my Convoy S2

they also got circuit protection (under-,over-charge and fast depletion) on them, which fits in the Convoy, so I have protection on the battery and in the circuit board of convoy. It will probably never explode.

you probably dont need to pay the extra for this, I just got it since I use dodgy fake LED flashlights with that non-cree brand called latticebright too with shit-tier solder which I dont trust has proper circuit boards

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3pcs-2017-liitokala-lii-34B-New-Original-NCR18650-3400-34B-Rechargeable-Li-ion-battery-for-panasonic/32807032859.html

Ye I may buy this

Should be good, I bought LiitoKala when I got them too, Turkey Post somehow smuggles them onboards to airmail.

liitokala seems to take a long time to ship items though

Be aware about the prices, it can be ridiculously high. These are Japan imports so you want a large-scale Chinese importer as proxy.

small ones take outrageous cuts

I tried to source them in my country to no avail, they cost like 25 USD PER PIECE here w/o shipping

liitokala also has a nice chinkshit charger for them if you dont have one and want a cheap one

@bap where are you from?

I got that dual cell charger (lii202) for 6 dollars, as for the batteries I think around 13 dollars for two cells is a good price shipped. You dont need more for two flashlights.

UK

It's the liitokala official store itself on aliexpress that takes a while to ship

I got the two PCB-protected ones for 13 dollars back then. So its funny that two ones here without PCB go for 14 dollars, but I guess its because of shipping issues and that costs a ton.

But batteries are about so much cheaper there than buying at vape stores here in the UK

same feeling here. Also, they are good quality. I have used these two badboys for over a year now.

keep in mind I dont vape, so I dont charge them a lot since most of the day it is sunny, but in the winter it is very dark and its useful.

whatever you do dont go full chink tier batteries

no PCB protection on some shitty vape with some UltraFire that is actually just filled with flour and some small shit battery that cant handle the high output of the vape will most likely explode in your face

rip by chink-shit

I wouldn't vape, but even if I did, vaping with chinkshit batteries is a pretty terrible idea

considering how fucking close it is

how the fuck do the EU warehouses work in gearbest? why is the shipping cost 30-40 usd to another eu cunt?

chinks

^

Chinklets forward the dumbass tax to you **GUARANTEED**

guys,did u see some sweet deal on xiaomi lamp or something nice of that kind (lighting)

@epi my friend, we rent the digital warehouse from *insert logistics company* and we need to pay the fee for storing the item there and forwarding it, please understand, we deliver better time guaranteed.

I had this thing before from chinks, only use it if its not much more expensive, usually some goods that are hard to send can be a better deal this way as they send it in bulk..

why would you buy long socks when you have pants please enlighten me anons

they are cute,and you should wear them with short skirt or pants

long socks are just portable pants

modular pants

striped items also have cultural signifiance as they used to suggest perversion,criminals and greed

my favorite is neon pink+black combination

second would be just black and white

Mines pink and white

I don't own any ofc

not really fan of blue and red,that is over the top

you do not want to be police-cute just cute

@Windatica pants are just socks for your legs <:blobhyperthink:427568506905559040>

gloves are just socks for your hands <:blobthinkingfast:427569198886027264>

you buy long socks for the ZR

If you use socks as portble pants

Socks are just beanies for your legs

Does that mean you show everyone you underwear

<:hms:311152554618912768>

socks are <#189467888657235970> unless they're chinese socks

I get it. But if you would buy socks like this for real. I mean I dont see a reason why, because I dont use skirts.

Then I suggest you dont buy chink quality ones.

are chinks socks actually any good? The demographic listed some cashmere stuff.

could you personally even tell cashmere from "normal"wool

yeah, just read the label

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Sanda-Top-Brand-G-Style-Shock-Watch-Digital-Fashion-Sport-Electronic-Men-Watches-LED-Male-Clock/32867585291.html

Elon Musk?

You need a real emitter outdoors.

i wist the mi band 3 could be used as a clock

For a Company who decided that you could put a 12' Thin and Light into RAID they sure make it hard to get to that m.2 slot

@Mirurin#3359 eww

@Dietrich What do you mean? The main screen on the thing is a clock.

Btw, can anyone enlighten me about this long socks craze rn? Are you girls, dudes that want to be girls, clowns or is it a fetish thing? I can't imagine a straight dude wearing these
