Ali often has mystery payment labels when you buy something with the credit card

does anyone know why?

they never write "ali express purchase" or something like that

but always some weird chinese proxy organization

but yeah

on my statement

it usually just says nothing

undefined transaction

hey guys, i'd really appreciate if someone could confirm or deny this

On Aliexpress the account, after adding a card, needs to be checked manually like Paypal does with it's 2 dollar test transaction?

It's like when you sign in on a forum and the account needs to be approved by an admin?

Is this regular protocol? Could you please elaborate? I'm kinda nervous and I'd like to know everything.

I've never had them need to do that for me

update: it's all good. looks like it wwas a glitch in the system. spoke to the chat person and it's all good

@Tribit

My router broke

Is it worth chinking a router?

Im thinking about getting a WLR 9000

@Shrimpf Xiaomi has some, you can also get cheap Asus routers from chinks

the Xiaomi ones have custom firmwares too last I checked

Sweet

But itll probably take some time to get here

Not if you have it shipped by DHL

Already bought an Archer C7

lol

I can still cancel

Is the MiWifi any good?

@Shrimpf Xiaomi stuff is usually good by default

jesus is there anything Xiaomi wont make

they don't even make half this stuff, they incubate small chinese companies, help them get to market, slap the xiaomi name on their thing and take a cut

that's a smart strategy

considering how Xiaomi has a solid reputation for quality

and let's be honest
