MAke sure you remove the no junk mail sticker from the letterbox or they may send it back :pac:

eeguy · 26-03-2015 12:29pm

Mine shipped on Friday 13th.

Hopefully that's a good sign.

Skerries · 26-03-2015 1:24pm

I want my bags of air now!

Pov06 · 26-03-2015 1:53pm

What if all you get is a bag from a Chinese supermarket that is lucky?

Buy bag for a couple of cents, sell for $20 :rolleyes:

Batzoo · 27-03-2015 12:37pm

Spoiler alert, I ordered 2 of these to see if the contents were random. Both Arrived today.

I was expecting boxes but got two bubblewrapped bags.

Opened the first one.

Contents:

One red plastic carrier bag.
One Deal extreme branded Iphone 5 cover.
One Capacitive touch stylus. Package was filthy, covered in thick dust, must have been sitting in a warehouse for a long time.
One 4GB micro sd card.
One Wecan iW500 Ispace Iphone remote control car. These are obvious returns.

Second bag identical contents to first.

Overall I am very disappointed as I was hoping for a few cd's or something I could use (don't own an Iphone). May get some use out of the sd cards after I check them to make sure they are actually 4GB.

sKeith · 27-03-2015 12:53pm

That car looks nice. i'll be chuffed with the bag if I get one of them in it.

Bazzy · 27-03-2015 3:44pm

I got a deal extreme branded iphone 5c case with screen protector

A nanofone NF769 mini walkie talkie one of them which is handy because I may as well be talking to myself most of the time round here

And a set of LED christmas tree lights

Not bad for 20 dollars if the walkie talkie works i'll be well impressed

sKeith · 27-03-2015 3:52pm

one half of a walkie talkie set and xmas lights. really wishing for the car now!

Yep, I forgot to mention the Iphone case comes with a screen protector, This case may be common to all. Also the sd card was wrapped in a small piece of red bubble wrap, easy to miss so make sure you all check.

My main disappointment is the fact that both my bags were content identical, only the cars are different colours. Would have liked a little more variety of junk.

Thargor · 27-03-2015 5:44pm

Cant believe these bag deals are still going, they've been rip-offs for years, better off spending the money on scratch cards.

Bazzy · 27-03-2015 5:51pm

the cheapest I can find the walkie talkie is $33 so i'm winning in my book

Well now you have something no other 20$ could possibly buy: countless days of driving around with your single walk talkie looking for your soul mate !

You never said over at the end is the transmission over?

luvlyjubbly · 28-03-2015 4:09am

This maybe perverse but I read this thread solely for the joy of having a chuckle at what you all get in the bag

ImARebel · 29-03-2015 8:40pm

@luvlyjubbly you're not alone, I'm doing the same thing :-D

luvlyjubbly · 31-03-2015 8:14pm

Pure entertainment! Anymore lucky bag updates?

Monkeynut · 31-03-2015 8:33pm

ImARebel · 31-03-2015 10:47pm

On a side note I did the grabone lucky dip from last week for 17eur and got a fake pearl jewelry set with swavoroski crystals, eye shadow and a large smelly candle. Def worth the punt...

Dying to hear about these they seem much more of a lucky dip

sKeith · 01-04-2015 8:36pm

My lucky dip arrived today.
1 x red plastic bag
1 x deal extreme mobile phone cover for iPhone
1 x Car cam corder fhd 1080p

Tearin It Up · 01-04-2015 8:43pm

A plastic bag?

They're 22cent in the shops.

dash cam HD you won !!!

plastic bags are cool although there probably translate to something comical

Thargor · 01-04-2015 10:54pm

Why the fcuk would Dealextreme think anyone would pay the guts of a grand for an iPhone and then wrap it in a Dealextreme cover? It would be like putting a Euro2 or PoundWorld logo on it.

Because people do.

Thargor · 02-04-2015 8:31pm

Great work Pov06, keep it up.

sKeith · 02-04-2015 9:57pm

P.O.S Dashcam. Fully charged the battery. came home from work today to check it out. Had enough time to set the time and look around a few settings, maybe 10 minutes total, low battery flashes up and it turns off.

win... i dont think so .. lol

That's how they're supposed to work. When you turn off your car they stop recording when the battery runs out. You don't need the camera to record for hours after you parked your car.

eeguy · 04-04-2015 4:50pm

Seems I got much the same as you guys...

I did a short unboxing video here: youtube.com/watch?v=6_an4REit4s

@RobertFoster: It was processing. Should be available now.

RobertFoster · 04-04-2015 4:51pm

Your video is private.

It BeeMee · 07-04-2015 11:35am

I got this IP camera and iphone case

g0g · 07-04-2015 11:41am

It's good to see that at least people got different contents to one another in some cases, unlike last time where most seemed to get the same junk. That IP camera looks alright if it works!

d31b0y · 07-04-2015 1:10pm

Still no sign of mine...

Was here when I got home. What looks like a night vision camera. Looks like a return so probably broken. No power supply anyway. And an iPhone 5c case.

RossieMan · 07-04-2015 9:18pm

Delighted I didn't go for one of these now, I knew it was a waste of money but this is even worse than I thought. I was expecting hundreds of little things that you might get 1 decent thing out of.

god's toy · 10-04-2015 1:21pm

Got a letter Revenue looking for a invoice for proof the price on the box listed is what I paid.

Anyone else get that?? How do you show proof if you don't know what your getting?

login to the dealextreme website account manager and screenshot the screen which has your address along with total US$ 20.02

Send it along to them. they will release the package and you won't have to make further payments.

Your Fortune Is Here. Limited Offer Only in Chinese Lunar New Year. Big Discount!

sKeith · 10-04-2015 1:46pm

I would look at it as an omen. The revenue think the package is worth over 26euro. You might have a winner!

imitation · 10-04-2015 1:47pm

Maybe thats why my ones delayed ! Or maybe it had a counterfit something or another and got blown up, who knows.

fdevine · 10-04-2015 2:31pm

I was keeping an eye on my lucky bags progress using the tracking number. I became aware on 3rd April that the package had been sent to Customs.

I preemptively sent them a PDF of my PayPal invoice without waiting for their notification letter.

Seems that Customs have an Easter backlog as I only got the letter yesterday, followed promptly by an email confirming package would be delivered without charges.

If the invoiced value is under €22 (we all paid c.€18) then Customs should release the goods without charge.

I know mine contains an IP camera as that's what is listed on the Customs letter. The letter gives clear enough instructions on what to do. If you didn't use PayPal then a screen grab from DX website with the value will suffice.

Considering most IP cameras on DX are $40-60 I'm pretty happy with my outlay.

TerrorFirmer · 10-04-2015 7:02pm

I got an IP camera as well. How does one use this sucker? There's no power cord with it..

Thanks for that, did just as you suggested and got an email back an hour later saying its cleared and will be on it way Monday.

Will post back here with what I get!

If you work that out, let me know. I am thinking of making a complaint. It might be slow going but they have been known to be decent in the past I think.

fergiesfolly · 10-04-2015 11:01pm

How do you track orders. I'm going in circles on their site

Its most likely PoE if it doesnt include a PSU. It'll cost you another €20 to get a PoE kit though...
