AliExpress experiments - Non-watch products

[chronosphere]

really dude
@sub4me will love to see this

suck it

Well said.
This person must have a sad personal life and,I suspect, no respect from fellow workers in his job
so I guess he likes to mess up other peoples enjoyment. trailboss made a welcome attempt to cool this asso(I know
help is hard to get,particularly voluntary unpaid but one wonders how fair this one is if he actually has any functional
responsibility on RW).
He unfortunately calls or attracts other no-hopers like himself.
I really enjoy the fantastic watch reviews and detailed discussions and pics from the excellent members like smoke and bonesey
so I guess a few like this one are more than compensated for.
But still I whish he would P*** off elsewhere.
Apologies for the rant to other forum members from an elder one.

Ya know, I'm about had it with this thread, now we have a mad Albanian to boot.
I promise you this, the next time I or another staffer needs to clean up this thread it will be closed for a week. Time after that, 2 weeks then a month and then forever. Alles klar?

Sorry trailboss(just spotted this after my post) but are you not supporting the morons who are obviously seeking just that-to kill the thread
and penalising the innocent. I recognise you have tolerated a non watch thread but please don't penalise moderate members.
I enjoy both RWI and RWG bz but would never dream of spoiling anyone elses thread because I objected to it.

I know you are a busy man (ran a company myself) but "protect the innocent".

 

[joncoyle]

Well, that's a No Sale for you until I get an explanation of why you are trying to back door sell. It's 2 weeks right now, no explanation and it becomes permanent. @joncoyle

Sorry, I was just trying to help someone out who was struggling to find what he was looking for, I haven't read enough of the forum rules to know this wasn't allowed - I know ignorance is no excuse.
I come to this forum to share information with others, not to sell (obvious exception in this case)
If you would like to impose something on my account to stop me listing in the for sale section then I can see why that would be fair, but as I've said, I don't come here to sell. I had only asked him to PM me with what he was looking to buy, I didn't actually know If I had anything suitable to offer him.

 

[joncoyle]

'
Another re seller have we?? you have to post things for sale in the non-watch sales, i don't think you are allowed to tout for sales

Yeah I generally buy enough items for my friends and friends of friends. People that don't want to buy from China themselves.
I wasn't aware I wasn't allowed to mention potential items for sale other than in the for sale section, but that does make perfect sense so i'll make sure not to do it again.
Although this wasn't an actual tout, I was just trying to help someone out but that's cool.

Jon the reviews I have read about clubs is the quality of the product, the logos coming off, or the shafts breaking at the hozzle. Do the clubs seem to be holding up? How many rounds?

For years I swung a knockoff TaylorMade driver and it was a nice driver and I liked swinging it. Last year I bought a Gen Callaway Xhot and its great but I am not sure there was much of a difference in distance which has me wondering what some of the irons are like for knock offs.

I've only used them on a practice green for a feel. Felt pretty good. Time will tell, i'll report back.
There's quite few sets of Titleist AP2 716's on Ali. I wonder how they are.

I have gen 714 AP2's. I wonder if it would be worth buying a rep set to compare.

I guess in real life he is just a fat guy behind his screen who is scared of people ...

That is very low man. I have seen this too many times. Someone gets teased by an American and hits back with the usual "fat" insult. I hate this it's like racism IMO.

Man you try to pass yourself off as a thug on that pic, that's such a mismatch with the spirit of this community, Benz and AK wtf. It reminds me of them scumbags I see dealing drugs in the suburbs of Paris...

An Escalade and a M4A1 is what you need bud, you need to upgrade. I am not American but I am used too hearing so much crap about the US where I live, I just can't stand it.

If you want a rep M4, PM me (no joke).

Thats one way of looking at things I guess.

"having a laugh" isn't really what this thread is for. It's not really adding to opinion or knowledge either.

It's just trying to destroy the chance for other RWI members, just the same as you, to discuss a topic. I don't see how that is changing knowledge of things.

Also, who is "we"?

I enjoy coming on RWI a lot. I add to the AP and Panerai sections regularly. I purchase from TD's. I sell on the sales section. I think my standard of person is just fine

I have put the worst offenders on the ignore list, except one, who is a Moderator. As such it is impossible to avoid his input.
Hopefully the Boss will pay attention to this state of affairs before he decides that there is a general problem with this thread, which until recently was highly informative and useful.

Didn't know this wasn't allowed TB. He was just doing me a favour.

I haven't read enough of the forum rules to know this wasn't allowed - I know ignorance is no excuse.

That's a major problem and one of the biggest issues I think members have with this thread. There are folks who come here only for the Ali crap and don't read any of the rules or contribute to the forum.

 

[Tucker]

Didn't know this wasn't allowed TB. He was just doing me a favour.

...and here's another one.

 

[SmqSub]

I've had great fun with this thread. Never heard of Ali before.
Bought some great stuff.
Knives, scarves and torches [emoji3]
Most of the fun is hunting down the good stuff!
Hope it continues [emoji56]

What??? The thread is called "AliExpress Experiments."

 

[SmqSub]

What??? The thread is called "AliExpress Experiments."

What do you mean?

 

[Tucker]

What do you mean?

Are you saying you have never heard of "Ali" or that you never heard of it before this thread?

 

[SmqSub]

Are you saying you have never heard of "Ali" or that you never heard of it before this thread?

Never heard of it before this thread.
Is that ok?

 

[trailboss99]

Oh my god, do you guys not get it? :facepalm:
The only reason this hasn't resulted in the shutting of this thread for a while is that it came so close after my warning but I am NOT going to have RWI disrupted with shite about stuff on Ali and neither will I have staff spoken about that way! Last warning for the thread, first for you. I am very close to starting tossing people out the window if they continue to show disrespect to staffers and that includes Sub!

[Tucker]

Understood.

 

[C Master]

Same here I never heard of it before I joined RWI. I lead a sheltered life

 

[Poolsfinest]

I've a feeling the ban Ali movement will soon have accomplished their goal...

Incidentally it would seem that a number of sellers are now reappearing after Ali had its purge/they had their "holiday".
Happy hunting for those that try to be happy and like to hunt.

 

[joncoyle]

That's a major problem and one of the biggest issues I think members have with this thread. There are folks who come here only for the Ali crap and don't read any of the rules or contribute to the forum.

How many people that join forums spend time to read all the rules? I must be a member of 30+ forums, and generally if you aren't rude to people or spamming you have little issues. Repeat offenders I understand should be warned,
If I actually posted within this thread to say:
" I have 25 of ???? for sale, £25 each, PM me to buy"

then fair enough, but I didn't. I told someone that lives local that if he was struggling to find what he was looking for, he could have one off me for the price I paid, and the price he would pay direct on Ali as I has spare.
If needs be I could have put that in the for sale section once we established that I may have something suitable.

If someone started a thread saying "anyone know where I can find this super rare bezel?" and I had one spare, would it be against rules to reply?
@SmqSub, as my account is now restricted I can't reply to your PM, but you can now see why.
