Aliexpress has billions of listings. I just seems unlikely that someone who works there is viewing a thread in an attempt to find those selling counterfeit problems, since it is pretty easy to find them. I bet Rolex is hanging out on the forums too looking for the trusted dealers.

post a link on reddit and the it will be gone in a couple hours

Just get one from Nashbar if you're planning to actually ride the bike instead of just hanging it in the wall and looking at it.

I have bought a few of these as fountain pens. Firstly I don't recommend you buy fountain pen - they're really difficult to get working nicely compared to other fountain pens and performance isn't as high as even some of my cheap ones unlike a real MB which has great performance (with a rollerball just switch in a MB refill and functionally identical).

Secondly - be careful. These are *really* delicate. The snowcap can break on a whim and the whole thing is fragile plastic. Also - don't buy gold plated like fake watches it wears off quickly.

Thirdly - polishing scratches out can be done in the same way you'd polish an acrylic watch crystal - handy to know.

Those issues aside the MB's you can buy are very accurate replications. They pass a bunch of "fake tests" people will apply such as shining a light to see if it glows red, looking under the clip, proportion, umlaut over the U etc. The serial number will be the giveaway since once googled you find other pens with the same #

I'm sorry.

I already bought and received that pen, I probably wasn't clear.

I'm happy with the overall quality but can't say in detail as I never held a gen one.

It doesn't feel balanced and the screw feels like it's going to break the next time you change the refill.

But looking at it results very well finished (logo, incisions, "Made in Germany" under the clip,...)

The writing is not smooth and sometimes, probably depending on the angle, the ink do not come out. I'm used with standard "BIC-like" pens, do they made something like that? The one I got is called "rollerball", which ones should I look for?

Can't find the SN#, where should I look for it?

For less than 10$ I really suggest it as I also have bought a Mechanic pencil from the same seller...

If you like BIC pens you should get ballpoint pen they will be similar gel type ink.
The serial number should be engraved on the side of the clip.

Not really having much luck negotiating a refund for the Prada briefcase/bag I bought; the lining is sewn on inside-out and looks ridiculous. The person I'm dealing with barely seems to understand/speak English. They're offering me a 10% discount when I'd really prefer to have something like an 80% refund -- I'm definitely not planning on ordering from this store again. Any advice?

Received Yeezy 350 from Suppliers Eva Zheng and Jessy Yeezy.

Their size conversions US to UK give US size 9.5 for UK size 9 . Adidas site also shows this, while other googled sources give
US size 9.5 as UK size 8.5.and US size 10 as UK size 9.

I noticed the YEEZY 350 US size 9.5 ,stated as UK size 9, that I purchased were noticably smaller than all my other UK 9's.
Probably nearer UK size 8.5 a little tight but wearable.

I am considering a pair of 350's Grey Turtle Dove, but wondering if I should order US size 10 however I amconcerned that
the difference between sizes may not be uniform.

Have any UK purchasers of yeezy 350's noticed this(any purchasers of the US size 10 able to confirm if they are actually nearer UK size 9).

Thanks.

File a dispute, say you received counterfeit items. Full refund from AE.

Just stick with it, it will eventually get escalated to Ali Express which is what the sellers don't want. Just keep saying that the item was defective and not as described and put in lots of pictures. Really a gamble sometimes which way it goes. I know a lot of people have success by telling Ali Express that the bag you received was a fake....but that really depends on how the item was posted and I doubt they put a brand in the listing.

I just hope the size is correct and that it 100% cotton.
Seller should ship it in a few days by EMS, so the wait should not be too long.

I have one pair of these but gray. Those are cotton, very comfortable but they are so warm that you can stand it only on winter. Wearing it daily will burn your penis.

I received that cheap Montblanc bag I mentioned some time ago. Will post photos tomorrow with sunlight.
It's not bad at all I must admit.

How's the fit to your standard size?
