Gearbest

[VapingBad]

Lol, last time I kicked up a stink they offered me free stuff for review, I refused mainly because I was sceptical of the motives, maybe I am being too cynical but to me it felt like an attempt to buy me off.

Just had my umpteenth order from GB delivered. No bribes, frills or even offers of good luck for life. No PM, messages about "when will it be sent". Paypal is the buyers friend.
Use them or avoid them - who cares? Why the hissy fits?
Or am I a paid stooge, just here to get my multitude of fellow members ripped off?

car147 and others were at the receiving end of one of the worst examples of GB's screw ups they advertised a Dovpo Harvest tank atty sent a few out ( i was lucky..) and then started sending out vaguely similar looking fruit tanks instead.. which could have been down to a simple stocking error putting one thing in the bin of another item at a casual glance one could be mistaken for the other, but no.. it transpired Dovpo objected to them selling it outside of bundled deals with a mod.. so rather than refund and apologise they sent out something vaguely similar.. you dont order a bmw and accept delivery of a fiat.. and anyone at the receiving end of this is thoroughly justified in being miffed imho..

btw fastwow are now selling the dovpo harvest tank (compatible with kanger occ coils and rba)..

Paypal is the only way with every supplier really.
No ones having "hissy fits".....its just wrong for others to jump on their posts because they havent given gearbest a raving review & theyve been messed around......fairs fair....you have to allow both ends of opinions without being ostracised for it.
You havent had an "big gift" offer yet?.....perhaps you should open a ticket & ask why not....its clear others have.....lol

"Time for me to leave I think as I am not prepared to be part of a forum that holds the above view." I've clearly misjudged that one.
And correct, no gifts. But I don't have a "contact" in China, or any other agenda.
I just buy from wherever the best price is.

[markus]

Such a shame youve decided to leave, not good to lose more people over this, but if you think its unfair for people to be allowed to give both sides of a coin regarding a supplier then....hang on....let me find the "roll eyes" smiley !....

No contact in china ?...really?...you should get one, theyre great!....(perhaps I should think twice about giving information that could possibly help members get the mods they want next time)

We all try & buy from the best place, its just unfortunate that people cant accept the fact that not everyone has the same view on who that supplier is!

I was offered free stuff for review in a response to a complaint about repeated missed ship dates, I refused as I posted above.

yeah....saw that VapingBad......but it doesn't sound like he's referring to you as he would have named you.

There's a nasty insinuation in this thread that those that say anything nice about GearBest have been 'paid off' somehow

[Greg]

Maybe it would be best to just wrap this thread up in an attempt to prevent more bad feeling. There will be no winners

[gill2009]

I am dismayed at the way this thread has gone...so unnecessary IMHO
