    Alipay is even bigger than paypal. You are safe putting your credit card details on it.

    Alipay is perfectly safe. Aliexpress is Alibaba its bigger than eBay and Amazon combined I wouldn't worry about doing transactions there. Any time I have had problems they have dealt with it very quickly and refunded without any problems.

    Well said Jimmii, until you authorize aliexpress to pay the seller, stating in the process that you're happy with product, you're money isn't passed on to seller.
    How did you escape from FSA :P

    Just bought one :) Have no need for it but sure couldnt not buy it for that price!! :)


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,028 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    I have something like this already that I never use, I don't need any more of these type of things, I know I'll never use it.

    2 ordered, sure it's only 40c


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭groom


    Only reason I've bought this is I love the excitement when I come home to a Chinese package in 6 weeks time that I've forgotten about completely. Then I'll be disappointed when it's an otg thingy I've no need for. It's a fantastic emotional rollercoaster.

    Longer than 50 working days (2.5 months)? The typical reception in my experience is about 3-6 weeks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,583 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    Paid 37c for 2 :D

    Depends on how many people are going through the airport in China on the way to Ireland. They slip in in tourists pockets with a note asking them to deliver it when they get to Ireland.:)

    I get plenty of tack on Aliexpress - 3-5 weeks is very typical.

    Yeh that is definitely the norm alright sometimes they even send DHL which seems crazy that must cost a fortune! I've made thousands of orders every now and then it does take a long time! It is a rarity though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 354 ✭✭pauldavis123

    Got mine yesterday, but I can't seem to get it to work. I've tried mouse, wireless mouse, usb stick, etc on two different Android phones, phone doesn't seem to see any of the connected devices. Don't know if I got a dud or if I need a driver?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 790 ✭✭✭forgodssake

    Ordered July 23rd, arrived this morning, coincidentally along with the power bank I ordered from Banggood on the 29th.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 813 ✭✭✭CaSCaDe711


    Arrived today too (2 x Black, 2 x Blue, 2 x Pink). All work fine, but decided to file down (a little bit) the 2 dimples on the underside, which makes them much easier to use, and they still stay put when connected :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 957 ✭✭✭ninja 12


    Got a black one and a pink one this morning in the post .

    They work perfectly with my wife's phone ( Moto E current version ) , but not my phone (Nexus 4 , doesn't support USB OTG )


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,028 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    I got mine yesterday, I have to order more, don't think I'll ever use them but they are SOOOOOOOOOOOOO handy


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,028 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    I got a blue and a black one, they work perfectly with a 64gb USB3 stick in a Samsung tablet and S6.

    On supported devices, it enables you to use normal USB peripherals such as keyboards, mice, USB flash drives, etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,179 ✭✭✭salamanca22


    They are handy for plugging in usb gamepads into a tablet for emulators.
