yeah

I ordered one of those A119 dash cam feckers. Got a SG tracking code too, and it provides literally zero data.

"In Transit" according to 17track. What?

usually SG tracjking codes always work for me

maybe it's just some cheaper non-tracked stuff

but then, Ali says shipped by air

17track says nothing

Oh shit, wait. It's been updated. 😱

on the other hand Alis progress might as well just be random to calm down buyers kek

"Despatched to overseas" after a mere week.

It might be.

I wouldn't worry. ali protection is always ont he side of the buyer

Them chinkies provided me with a new tracking code, and the old one on Ali is still updating like that package is in transit too.

Worst case scenario I get two dash cams for the price of one.

yes Ali is the good guys

unlike DHGate

fake news

dhgate is even MORE respectable than ali friend, just ignore all the fake everything

and lack of https on the main website

I already told the 3.x volt adapter story right?

I bought a bunch of wholesale USB chargers for phones off dhgate and the seller didn't specify the output but as every normal person would assume, I assumed they have an output of 5v ... I mean they are supposed to charge phones

when they arrived I realized they can't charge any of my phones because they output roughly 3 and a half volts

when I complained on dhgate they said they don't give a fuck because the output wasn't specified

basic rule of "read twice buy once"

no they were sold as iphone chargers and they can't charge iphones

for me this means the product is defective

what would you even use 3.5 volt charger for

just batteries?

I would say absolutely nothing

altho >DHGate .. im not that suprised

they were simply broken

3.5 can still download most low-end devices

altho veeeery slowly

on the rpi it doesn't even turn on the LED

its same that some sellers sell 5v but shitty next to nothing Amperage chargers

yes 5V 0.3 A

its 5 it can and does charge but Amps on it cant do shit

there are plenty of 5V 0.3A chargers on dhgate

and you usually see them on street markets sold by brown people all over Europes main touristic cities

its probly 300 mA due higher than that there is high risk of death

so ~ they avoid legal requirements and many other
