Listen! This is an Ali Express thread, if you don't like Ali stuff than just stay out6 of the thread please.

I gave you anti Ali guys what you asked for, we reigned in the thread with regard to watches but that was not an invite to come and trash this thread.
RWI is for everyone not just those who think in a particular way, if people want to buy stuff from Ali that is up to them. After this shitfight I wish I'd left the damn thread alone.

Thank you. I'm all up for a bit of fun but it was grating after a few days never mind the weeks it carried on for. We had a fairly good natured thread before this (and I hope the users come back after this).

I wear mine to the office daily atm and have received numerous compliments.

Quality is great overall although there are a few weak points in the finish. Really want to get my review out -.-

Lol I was going to finish it up last weekend but the shop I purchased from is shut down now. You guys still want the review?

Also have more or less been dodging this thread since the shit storm started... ;P

I've had some great items from Ali, mostly because I did my research before buying. This thread became rather good for that until recently. Sadly not anymore but if that's what people want to do with their time then good for them. There are plenty of other places to look.
That said, I completely disagree with the deleting of items off of someone else's information document.

Of the 20 or so Ali purchases I've made, 1 has gone straight in the bin. Some items have been good enough quality for me to think that I would've been foolish if I'd bought gen. Some of the biggest bargains I have had are non branded.

As for the posting of links making sellers disappear... I would guess any item which sells more than around 50 times will be closely scrutinised by whomever is screening items on Ali's behalf. That would make items/sellers disappear far quicker than a link posted on a replica watch forum. Just my opinion.

Well said Pool!

That's a nice watch box, but a word of warning/advice: it may actually be cheaper on Amazon locally, depending on where you live.

Some things like that are cheaper here in Japan despite being the exact same product. My guess is that the person who buys them here pays for them in bulk and gets a discount, then saves on shipping as well. It might also be that some types of products have higher prices on Ali because the entire site has a "cheap" image, so people will be willing to buy things that seem like a good bargain even if they're not? Not really sure about the logistics behind it.

I have a ten-watch box that I saw on Ali for something like $35, but then I found it on Amazon Japan for 2800 JPY, almost ten dollars less.

Just a heads up mate, usually, it's not a sale. They jack the prices up a bit prior. Just add it to a wish list and watch. But some stuff is onsale! So good luck.

That's weird, I still had the trench wish listed and the link is dead, item is gone, and couldn't find the store.

I'll get the review up as soon as I can, gonna avoid a deadline though so as to not disappoint. I'm busy af lol

Nice box! Here's mine. Finishing is not top notch but I paid 30€ for it so not a big deal. :)

No problem. I'll probably get mine next week, but it's good to hear your thoughts on it regarding the weak spots.

Quick question, when you said weak spots, did you mean it regarding the design or how it's built so possible points where it could break?

Btw here is the link http://s.aliexpress.com/yuUF7N add nE to the end.

Edit: Wohoo! Congrats for me for my 100th post. Lol.

Seems like ali has had a massive crackdown, ive messaged a few trusted sellers and they are now posting random links, you then agree what you want and they adjust the price, ive done this twice today.....as far as complaints would go though ? Im unsure as no actual product is listed
