Well spotted. I opened the dispute this time last night and haven't heard anything from them yet.

I ordered from Trusted Link at the same time. They initially offered $8 refund, then $30 and then $50 but i'm holding out for response from AliExpress to see if their warranty is worth anything. At bottom of photos in the seller's ad you'll see the Guaranteed Genuine logo. AliExpress guaranteed genuine warranty says they will pay x3 original price if article is not genuine - AliExpress to refund the money paid and the seller to refund the extra x2. Tbh i cant see this working and will be pleased enough with the AliExpress refund but worth testing to see if their warranty is genuine. Already waiting 3 days for a response from AliExpress after escalating the dispute so don't have a lot of confidence in them!

F*ck it, I'm going ordering another one there!
I'll be delighted if I get $50 back!

Forget it!
Price is $128 now..

Can you post a link to that deal extreme battery ?

This is the one. Although, as I said, I can't be certain that their stock will remain exactly the same as what I got. But it's a small amount of cash so worth a punt I reckon!

Great thanks I will order one and see!

Looks like I've been refunded the full amount - I initially opened the dispute because I hadn't received the goods with only 24hr to go and looks like seller has refunded under that issue rather than the counterfeit one - so avoids having to pay the x2 extra. I'm not going to complain! NOTE for anyone disputing - once it's escalated the system doesn't notify you by email if AliExpress responds so you have to keep logging in & click on dispute button to check what's happening (AliExpress communication doesn't appear in the buyer/seller messages list). That's why I was waiting so long for response - they had responded, asking for more info, shortly after I escalated the dispute. Good luck to all with your disputes :-).

The seller has just got back to me with this message:

I got the exact same response. Get the money back would be my suggestion!

here is the recent reply I have gotten:

Sorry for the inconvenience.
If you could believe us once again, we could offer the following suggestions :
1 you could get the full refund if you return our item, I guess you could return it to our Germany warehouse, then it would be cheap.
2 if you keep it, we will refund you 50 USD. (Our manager said we could undertake this loss for giving you nice experience) As you know, it would take about 60 USD for the fake one.
3, if you need the original item, and you do not want to return, you could just pay another 30 USD, and we will resend the original one for you. We have changed the supply of this items.
Waiting for your confirmation.
Best wishes.


so what happens if I let the dispute go to aliexpress?

Yeah, again I got the same response. Just let it go to AliExpress as they will give you a full refund due to you not receiving the item advertised.

http://www.foxoffer.com/blog/2014/07/05/the-difference-between-original-and-fake-sj4000/ heres how to tell the diff between real and fake. Actually I'm trying to find a real sj4000 with Wifi, anyone know the cheapest place?

that's a bargain alert on it's own right there!

shame they switched suppliers, we could have got a heap of them on the cheap! :pac:

The shop I dealt with had just changed supplier also.
Some coincidence isn't it!!

Btw, my dispute was closed on Thursday morning and the money was back in my account on midnight Friday.

wolfyboy555 wrote: »

Bank account or aliexpress account?

Back on to your credit card surely....since you would have bought through a credit card. Well that's what I did, and where my money was returned to.

blade1 wrote: »

Yes in the bank!
Glad it was sorted fast.

Best I've seen for the WiFi is €79.79 on FoxOffer but they're sold out at the moment - due in again end of the month.

USD 85 with the coupon 6B84AE


Beware some Ali/eBay sellers are selling clones of the SJ4000.
I can confirm mine from Banggood was legit.
Massive user thread here http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2090990

Ordered this one , Looks like it's in cutoms according to the shipping info.
anyone know how long it'll take to clear? will they send a letter out to the address with the added charges or will the postman be looking for them?

Gran Hermano wrote: »

Did you go with the default shipping or change/upgrade to ship via Netherlands?

Tracked Standard shipping , I didnt upgrade though perhaps that would have been a good idea

Edit:

Just rang customs there , need to email on receipt to see if theres any charge , I guess i'll have to pay the VAT and a Handling charge by anpost , would this have been avoided going through netherlands?

Got mine today.. Nice little camera.. Anybody else find it's a bit too bright when recording video and if so has anyone changed any of the settings to make it better?

Under settings there's an exposure option. Take it down a tad perhaps?

must get one of these..!

Threw this together the other day. Few clips from my holiday using the cam. Please forgive the shakiness and poor editing! It's my first go at it. Might give lads another idea of quality. I'm so so happy with the quality for that price!

Great quality, well on par with my old go pro 960 that i sold. considering picking up one of these, did you buy from ali express? have you a link to the seller please?
