    Might be something of interest. There's a smart TV that looks like a steal.

    Scroll down a bit you'll see it. I've just noticed however in the comments they aren't shipping to Ireland at the moment due to the virus apparently.

    Can't say I see any good TV deal there personally anyway. All I see on that page is a 32 inch 720P TV for $200 and a 43 inch 4K TV for $400 which seems like average prices. Is there another TV deal that I'm not seeing?

    There's a Xiaomi 32" android TV for €176. Maybe you need to subscribe or something.

    Doesn't ship here apparently anyway.

    Ah. Click on the sale banner the offers will show up.

    Yeah I mentioned that, doesn't seem to be much of a good deal to me, you can get similar TVs for a similar price without a sale e.g. the TCL 32ES568 TV is cheaper in most places.

    I am not talking about the TV, just Geekbuying......

    They also ship from warehouses within the EU with limited stock at these locations. Click on the "Shop All Categories" to see the drop-down menu. I never had a problem with anything I ordered from them (fingers crossed now!)

    Their site is near identical to aliexpress.

    I must be out of the loop on what company owns what.

    I wonder is delivery as slow as AliExpress at the moment. Not getting anything within 8 weeks.

    Ordered a phone over a month ago. Was in the Netherlands ten days ago apparently.

    Supposed to take fourteen to thirty working days,there are delays at the moment however I think.

    I've bought from: Gearbest, Banggood, EU Global, Honorbuy and Geekbuying.

    Never had any major issues with any. Some arrived quicker than others but can't remember which.

    Geek buying is grand I've bought lots from them. Usually the same kind of things as the others. But you can get better choice on EU warehouses for the over 20 Euro priced stuff so it isn't liable for extra import tax.

    use the EU warehouse locations and you will get decent delivery time by courier and no customs issues.

    if you buy from the China location expect to pay 23% VAT + collection fee.

    I find geekbuying reliable to deal with.

    if you live in a house would really recommend a vacuum with multi-level mapping capabilities.

    I got a great deal on a laptop there after getting advise on another forum.

    It was an expensive machine but arrived swiftly and no problems whatsoever.

    the more recent robot cleaners with radar mapping and multi-level maps (for larger houses over different stories) are game-changers.

    they also have much stronger suction, bigger dust bowls and even mopping (don't expect mopping to do much more than light stains tho obviously)

    something like this

    I bought a vacuum from geekbuying from their EU store on 15th, but no update since then. Does anyone know how long they usually take to deliver it? Thank you.
