I just picked up two Skywalker's and they are fantastic. Shipping took a little bit but overall I was very happy with them. Several of my coworkers were impressed by them that they picked up some for themselves. Just placed an order for one of the tactical pens, hope its as good as the Skywalker.

Which seller did you order your pens from? How do they compare to the real ones?

It seems though all threads about Ali on RWG are VIP locked...so a review here would be nice if allowed. (?)

I finally tried out the Wine Aerator and i was really happy with the result. Honestly i was not expecting much given the cost. But it looks great (plastic so feels a tiny bit flimsy) but it works like a charm. Tried it out last night with a Cheap bottle of Pinot Noir. I opened it up and poured myself a taste without the aerator and in another glass poured a bit with the aerator. To me there was a distinct difference and i think it is worth it. It automatically got rid of that sharpness / tartness that comes with a majority of cheaper wine. I definitely recommend this. At $5 its worth the gamble in my opinion. Shipping takes a bit long

Yep, that's the one. I agree that it's priced wayyy too high, for 80 or so bucks you can get a great watch box. Even half of that will get you an okay watch box on Alie.

Cool. Can you PM me the link to it when you get around to it? No rush.

Yes, aeration makes a huge difference with every wine, including whites. It really opens them up. That guy from Microsoft said you can literally turn an otherwise meh bottle into something very palatable just through aeration. He also recommends tossing a dash of salt into the glass. No joke. He did it at a party he was at where they were drinking $1k and $2k bottles just to make a point. It immediately alters the structure of the wine and the flavor profile. He didn't suggest that you should toss salt into every glass of wine, but it was just an experiment to show how something really basic like that can really shake up the flavor and experience.

Who was the seller mate? I tried searching, but apparently they don't list brands so its a bit harder ro find stuff.

New product just in - Hermes iPhone 5C Case in orange. Let me just say that this is probably one of the nicest surprise results that i have received from AE. One of those diamond in the ruffs that i keep talking about finding. I ordered this as a mini present for the mother in law as she has the 5C and loves the color orange and the brand as well lol. With the box this cost me a whopping $11 and i have to say that i am really impressed by the quality of this product. There is a lot of detail on this case that I was not expecting. I can not confirm how well the phone fits in it as I dont have the 5C but looks wise, this thing is top notch. On to the pics:

I've had quite a few things off Ali now. Had some Nike Roshe Runs which are really good. Very.close to the real thing and very comfortable. Bought some Nike Yeezy's too which were good but not really my thing so sold them.on. Also had a cool Iphone 5 Jordan case. If you spend some time on there asking for pictures and reading the reviews you can get some good stuff
