bad experience

Hi all, jut be wary of the cheap china. Totally worn out from trying to resolve a non working IP camera sale ( it was supposed to

work). The seller was yallstock and after several weeks of trying to resolve a DOA issue they have offered me a 30% refund. I had already taken the unit to a computer tech store, they confirmed it was dead.

Anyway my real advise is china sales will be 50/50. So consider it may never arrive or bet totally inadequate or just broken.

Its a long way from here to Bejing and even further back

think global, buy local, when you can, if its Not cheaper elsewhere

should have addded, be wary of

gave up on refund from them too,

returned goods at my expense, another dud unit sent ( it did work for about 3 hrs)

too much pain to chase it from then already many many hours

Electronic components have a fair chance of failure, I would have opted for a refund and not a replacement in your case.

Buying from China has it's advantages and disadvantages, advantage being they are cheap, disadvantage being (return) postage is expensive and takes time.

That's the same seller (operating under one of many similar IDs) who stuffed me about for over a month last May before I finally emailed him, only to be told that he was unable to supply the item I'd purchased, but hadn't bothered to let me know or refund my $46 so I ultimately left him a well-deserved negative feedback.

For the next 6 weeks, he emailed me almost every second day, trying to bribe me with promised discounts and even cash to revise my feedback until I finally had to complain to eBay to get him to stop, and even had to leave him a follow-up to my neg, warning him to stop harassing me. He eventually gave up after sending me 16 emails over a period of 4 weeks. Clearly a seller to avoid.

You would think that ebay would take the lead and do the right thing as they have the power whilst we have none.
