    The MK808 is back at €28 delivered. Which isn't bad.


    Why is this better than the one in the original post?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,001 ✭✭✭fl4pj4ck


    1) you will actually get it (edit: actually judging by comments below that might not be the case)
    2) two cores vs one

    I'd be very wary of that seller, look at their recent feedback all of which are related to the MK808, almost looks like a hijacked account.

    Was at the payment screen in PayPal when something in my head told me to look back on boards and see if there is anything more written about it! I'm glad I did now!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    I deleted the link, but 17 of the last month are positive, 6 are negative.. And they are all giving out that the tracking number is bad... That's kinda normal from China.... They might still get them

    AND It's just after Christmas..

    I ordered from Aliexpress Free deliver on the 28th of November, Tracking number didn't work they arrived today.. So i wouldn't agree with those.

    17 are positive in the last month. I'd risk it. I might still... I Just have two delivered today of a different model, so i don't need them yet.

    If I was to order now and it doesn't arrive within a month is it possible/easy to get a refund from PayPal?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,061 ✭✭✭Kenny Logins


    Yeah, that tracking number panic is a little unreliable as tracking numbers often don't go 'live' for a day or two.

    Yep, you have 45 days.
    I would actually trust it. He has good feedback up to this, and this was posted on a forum, so more people buying and panicking. €28 isn't an AMAZING price, it's okay, just roughty €8 cheaper than elsewhere.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,234 ✭✭✭Fresh Pots


    Tried to order just now using PayPal and it says I'm unable to buy it due to seller restrictions. Anyone else getting that?

    If you get that be worried man, Paypal is the only thing I trust to handle my payments. At least you can get a refund off them.

    I already got charged by DX, will be mightily pissed if i don't get it now


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    I must have over 100 orders from DX over the last 5+ years and never had any bother.
    If they can't fulfil the order in reasonable time they'll mail you asking so you want to cancel.
    You can also raise a ticket with customer service now and cancel.

    At the price it was worth amount and I'll hold out and see whether it ships.
    In the interim I've ordered a NEO G4 from them. Gets great reviews and comes in around 40 euro

    Just saw this on DX

    To all: Regarding the mini android 4.0 Media Player–sku.145864 External link you have purchased

    Unfortunately, after receiving the most recent batch of media players, it came to our attention before shipment that some of these media players have a quality issue that may affect performance. At that time we also discovered that the manufacturer supplied us with a discrepancy in information regarding the processor frequency.

    Having known this fact, we tried to find an alternative source but no comparable units were available. We also attempted to have another batch of media players manufactured to the proper specifications but this would have required factory re-tooling that was not feasible in a reasonable amount of time.

    1. Full refund will be issued on this item for anyone who ordered the product regardless of shipment date. We will contact you directly to follow up on this and you may keep the media player.

    2. If your order hasn’t been shipped yet, it will be cancelled and you will receive a full refund and a $5 USD coupon code to use toward the purchase of a related Android HD media player here


    The problem wasn't stock related, but quality related.


    :(

    Ah well, was too good to be true. :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 595 ✭✭✭mono_mac


    When we get refund :)

    The 6 Negs were all for the MK808, those other positives were for different items. Anyway the item now seems to have been removed by ebay and probably the seller too. The reason Paypal refused to accept payment from TheTechGuy is most likely because their account has been suspended because of too many claims. Too late now anyway but I wouldn't have gone near him with a bargepole.

    PRICE related :mad: I'd say...
    Thought I was in the clear, had no emails except confirmation mail up until yesterday - then a flurry of emails last night. Langballs.

    You'd swear half the flashlights/bike lights were actually the claimed brightness. They'll have to shut the site down if they can't ship anything that has been exaggerated a bit.
