The customer services at Manafont did a very good job of pacifying me until this period of time had passed. Crafty bar stewards.
Looks like I've lost £45 to the feckers.

I had the same thing happen with a seller on ebay,first time I've ever had problems to be honest.
Item arrived at slough then promptly vanished,he kept me talking saying he had posted a replacement etc,I opened a case,ebay said I had until the 18th of oct to to escalate the case so I gave him until the 17th but when I went to escalate the case the deadline had long passed as the sale was way back in late august,I was fooled by his email replys and misled by ebays response....anyway I've done a claim via the credit card company

This is the kind of stuff that it should be in the media... To warn people and to stop this type of daylight robbery. I have lost around £35 and it is not going to change my life but as a collective amount, around the world, it must be worth hundreds of millions.
Somehow, alibaba/aliexpress or whatever they are called, need to change the way, protecting the buyer, not stealing our money. If this company is not releasing the money to the seller and we have not received our goods, where are our money going? Their banks. Plus it is on aliexpress interest to keep the money in their account for as long as possible, so that it can earn them profits.
Any journalists in this forum?

Banggood have notified me they have shipped my order today that was placed on the 26th. So not the fastest out there.
DX are still back-ordered on aspherics, tail caps and driver boards for 501B after 21 days.

Just been informed my 5" screen has been returned to the supplier courtesy of the Ch customs bods, however I have been told I have a credit now on my Paypal a/c. I think I'll be looking for a Uk supplier rather than waste another month waiting. Any leads?
's me!

FastTech 18650 order was turned back by Hong Kong Post.
Will be interesting to see if they refund me. My other FastTech tracking number still doesn't work after two weeks.
Will be interesting to see if BangGood comes through with 18650s or will they bang me good and proper?

Had a refund this morning for an ebay battery after 5 weeks of waiting.
They are going to destroy half the Chinese economy at this rate.
I think its a ploy to shake things up price wise.
either that or they had a fire due to a faulty batch of batteries??
They must have a huge pile of refused deliveries by not.
Wont be long before something has to give.
It just takes the mick that were all out of pocket
