One of my 11/11 items has been stuck in the mail as well. I guess it was unavoidable that more mistakes were made in the rush to get stuff shipped during that sale.

Update: the left side is half dead. After 3 mere days of moderate use... I changed the ear tips and a few minutes after that, one of the left drivers seemed to die. It now plays at half volume and lacks detail. I tested it with my phone and sure enough, it is not a software issue.
How is GearBest with refunds? Should I not get my hopes up at all?
John Morgan
If you're going to get a Baofeng off of Amazon, ONLY buy the one that says "refurbished" USA Warranty. They're $10 cheaper than the new ones, have a harder ABS shell and went through rigorous testing.
5 out of 5 units I have bought this way all work.
Only one out of two that I bought from Chinkland directly worked.

Just got a few stuff that I ordered from goybest back in November (28ish if I recall correctly). It's a KZ ZS6 and a Bluetooth cable for it, a Xiaomeme USB light and a couple of original KZ """"""""memory"""""""""" """"""""foam""""""""" eartips. I also got a Samsung 64GB micro sd card that's already on my tablet. It werks.
I like the KZ ZS6, coming from a KZ ATE the sound is much louder, clearer and just overall better. I do seem to get a small headache from using them for a significant period of time but I'm uncertain if it's a psychological thing or if I'm really sensitive to the sound signature. The cable that comes with it is absolute shit. Super tangly, a real pain in the ass to use. The BT cable is nice, took about a hour to charge and the sound quality is fairly decent although I haven't tested the battery I can say that the volume on it is really good. The eartips are garbage, literal fucking garbage, they don't fit the IEMs, they aren't memory foam, I would not recommend it to anyone, just get yourself some real memory foam tips from Ali instead of wasting your precious scheckls on this. The ones in the picture are medium sized t400 if I recall correctly. The Xiaomeme light is for me to read a book when the power goes out. It has 5 different settings, the brightest one is enough to light a medium to small room, for the price it's great.

They are famous for their shitty costumer support. Still you should to get a refund.
Jack Flores
If Gearbest offer you some chinky deal like 1/3 refund + GB points tell them you'll launch a PayPal dispute if they don't refund fully. They fold immediately and never fight you on it again.
Thanks for the replies. I suppose this might be a dumb question, but... do I have to send them back? I can't imagine it being otherwise, but the shipping would cost more than the item itself, so doesn't that essentially beat the point of asking for a refund?
Nolan Diaz
No you rarely have to send anything back to China. You have all the power of PayPal protection, just tell them you'll keep the product and get a refund or you'll dispute. They can't do shit.
Ian Gonzalez
I ordered from another seller I already had bought from. Atm I use medium but I think the fit is a bit loose. That is why I ordered these from KZ, I wanted to try different sizes to see which ones fit the best so they aren't really essential to me. But I was really surprised at how shitty they are. Should I be paying with PayPal on goybest? Does it improve my chances of not getting chinked by them?
Christian Rodriguez
Thanks, that's great advice.
Jason Gomez
If you're on any site that isn't Ali, use PayPal. On Ali all the sellers fear Jack Ma and you almost always win disputes no matter what so Alipay is as good protection as any. But yes, PayPal backs you up against the chinks most of the time. It's good insurance.
Elijah Robinson
you also should be using paypal to act as a MitM for payment transactions so some of these chinks never get your card information.
Owen Reed
Thank you for the input. I thought PayPal was more usefull on ebay. That's not a issue. I use a service that is available in my country that allows me to create a one use, with a max amount credit card using my debit card. It's pretty usefull for this sort of shit. That's why I never bothered with PayPal.

Is the Superlux HD668B substantially better than the HD681 to justify getting the former?

Where can I buy a Taotronics Pulse X cheapest that ships to Europe? (wiki says that they go for as cheap as $20 but I'm only finding them in Japan for about $40)

Nathan Nguyen
Asked in the last thread, but oh well. Does anyone know a decent waterproofed IEM? I'd like to use it when swimming
I also ordered quite a few accessories like steel jewelry. Quality varies greatly, stainless is not always stainless or they use bullshots, but as long as you get one decent piece out of three it's fine for the low price.
Shopping list:
Blank black keycaps, maybe a different Esc like red Bunch of AA and/or AAA flashlights Rock Zircons and red/blue foam tips (you know, blue left, red right) A tripod A few cheapo watches, like Skmei
Always open to general suggestions. Not planning to order any heavy/complex electronics or knives.
Jordan Ortiz
I was just on the Ali app but where is the coupon rain game? Nothing happened.
Jordan Mitchell
Still waiting on 11/11 orders to arrive. Don't feel like getting chinked again.

I need a every purpose backpack. Preferably from gearbest since I'm trying to get a xiaomi robot vac. Any suggestions?

How do I decide what Body Color to get? It looks like the higher the number, the more current.
Shouldn't I just get the one with the biggest current in that case?
Jordan Anderson
Take 7135x8 for max brightness unless you want the 1% mode to be ultra dim and tactical.
T6 3B is a nice neutral color but some prefer a warmer light. Request for biscotti firmware before paying and you get more customizability. Pic related.
Justin Smith
Not always
Caleb Collins
I'm kind tempted to get the 1A color just because I like white light best. Is that not to your fancy?
Julian Clark
Your preference. Some people feel that warmer tints are more comfortable for viewing and have better color representation.
Jaxon Parker
is there an infographic of some kind for backpacks? thanks

Hey vir/g/ins So I'm not really an artist (used to draw weeb shit when I was 15 and it looked pretty fine) and I think I'm in the mood to do it again So whats the path I should take I'm not the type to do it professionally (plug in a wacom and some meme drawing software and try hard). I was thinking of a drawing tablet so that I could basically scribble, in detail. Whats your recommendation?

I bought one of these and it frustratingly has large pieces of dust in the screen under the plastic and it's driving my autism up a wall.
What's a good mp3 player to buy under $100 but preferably around $20-$50 that has expandable storage?
It doesn't have to be chink shit, but I really would like something that looks higher end and doesn't have dust inside of it when I receive it in the mail.

Buy a refurbished wacom bamboo pad I got one for like $50 I think and it's really a nice device.

Bought a tritium keychain almost 2 months ago and the order is complete in 2 days. It's been stuck in my country for 53 days and i know its not coming. Do I message the seller saying the situation, wait till the order is complete then do that or do i dispute it. I'm new to chinkshopping send help.

Gearbest doesn't seem that bad so far from my first time using it so far. I read a bunch of horror stories before buying anything. I ordered a pair of KZ ES3 with a coupon a few days ago. I used "USA priority mail".
I placed the order in the morning and it was shipped by the end of the day. And it was REALLY shipped. I wasn't just sent a tracking number while the seller takes a few days to hand the package to the carrier. I see regular updates from the SF express carrier.
I usually buy my chinkshit only on AliExpress and most sellers never ship that fast. They can take a few days to give me my tracking number then take a few more days to ship the package. I guess I just have to avoid using gearbest on special days like 11.11?

What are some neat USB gadgets / lights / toys that I can buy for a friend? I know they won't get here in time for christmas but he doesn't really care about that. He already has the usual usb powerbanks, the USB led's that you can hold down to change brightness level, some fans, and other types of USB lights.
I'm looking for stuff that's kinda neat but not completely junk
