Fellas, I've been ordering a lot of stuff of Ali since the creation of this thread. Everything's been pretty good so far up until this one order..

I ordered a few of those $16 Polo's mentioned throughout this thread well over a month ago. The tracking number never worked, I figured maybe they forgot to type a number.

I messaged them several times, never got a reply. Now purchase protection runs out in a day or two, and I send them a message, and finally hear back. Seller claims parcel must be lost, and offers to send another.

Anyone ever have this happen? I feel if I'm gonna give this guy another shot, I should get a discount or something...

File a dispute first. So everything can be on recorded and don't get screwed. They might be stalling.

I have to say I'm stunned by the quality of most of the items shown here. I had purchased some things on ioffer in the past, what do you guys think is better bottom line, ioffer or aliexpress?

I've only experienced excellent service from that seller. Two of my orders have had issues, and both was resolved right away.

I'd ask him to send another and ask for a small discount. Just make sure that he extends the purchase protection before it runs out. And if he doesn't, just open a dispute.

I also received my Burberry scarf yesterday. Really pleased with the quality for £15.

Got my Louis V Keepall 55 today from Old cobbler. It's unreal!
Over the moon with it.

Also my 2 Burb scarves, again both fantastic.

Dre Powerbeats and 3 x Bose Soundlink 3's came in too, i'll collect them in the morning. I had to pay £19 Duty. But worth it as I know the quality is basically the same as gen!

Pics to follow in the next day or two.

Would love a link to the bag from old cobbler?!

To those that have asked for a link to the Burberry scarves, my link doesn't work anymore and the seller seems to be down. Can anyone else help with a new link?

I've just been sent these pics of a LV watch roll, they have them in the usual 3 colours/styles. They look pretty good if not great. Not sure I'm going to buy one, but thought I'd share it anyway. If you want the link let me know.

Sorry that's a bad rep. Im not an expert in watches but LV bags. The red glue is horrible. It's supposed to be dark like burgundy almost. The stichy is so bad. Also the leather is not real leather that should develop a patina.

+1 reason to never get the monogram due to the lack of patina and the red glue (seems to be on most keepall bags + watch rolls) Get the Macassar if you want an accurate monogram bag or damier for the watch roll

The monogram is the canvas so it's not leather in gen lv bags but the straps are (the beige/white part). It's supposed to be vachetta leather.
