Keep the app, use a permission manager to limit what it has access to. The app still saves you 2-3% on most items. And its fun to shop while your on the shitter.

You know, sometimes I look at these outrageous prices and I wonder: I'm paying literally less than a dollar to some chink in a dirty warehouse to grab an item, wrap it up in bubble wrap and put it in a package, have said package flown halfway across the world to my country, where it gets picked up by local delivery service, flown to my state, where a guy in a truck picks it up and delivers it straight to my front door.

Sure, it takes a couple months, but all this work, for less than a fucking dollar earned. Incredible, isn't it?

Can someone school me on how this seller is able to sell this 970 "new" cheaper than any store, by at least 20%? Amazon listed this at £268.99, this dude is $219.99.

How do it do? I am guessing this is tax-avoidance. Some chink business has a UK "connect" who gets parcels as gifts, then the Chink forwards the buyer address to the connect and tells them to post to me, making it look like the package is coming from the UK, when it's actually from Chinatown. Still doesn't answer how they are able to turn a profit on this card at such a low price, are they stealing it from the MSI factory in Chinkland?

>320 kbps mp3
v0 VBR mp3 > 320 kbps CBR mp3
variable > constant
Someone told me that v0 mp3 files are better. If I recall why it's because they said that v0 mp3s have smaller file size and v0 is still very transparent. And that you're just wasting file size in your memory card if it's for portability. FLAC is for archival. v0 is for smaller file size with same transparent audio. CBR mp3s are okay.

Now this is my opinion. I think that CBR mp3s use more CPU usage or whatever because more bit rate.
>>
>>53625216

unlikely, check his feedback, they seem happy with the card, i'm sure they're not all retards

ANYWAY i bought one, i'll report back to CSG.

Also .. shipping takes "up to 2 weeks" which is very suspicious since we're both in the UK. So i'm guessing this is when the connect runs out of stock, and needs a re-up, they can buy some time by getting a fresh batch from China.

You realize that the price listed is the "normal" price in the US, right? It's marked up on amazon for some dumb reason. He probably just got them onsale and is reselling them or is buying them from a US vendor and drop shipping.

Whole category, if you want different card slots.

You can find:
>6 SD
>4 SD, 8 TF
>3 SD, 10 TF
>24 TF
The one with 3 SD is best imho, because you can fit a TF to SD adapter. I also have some old 256MB miniSD with SD adapter, so I use two big slots.
>>
>>53625338
>increase size
Increase price, obviously. But it still seems to be the cheapest offer.
>>
>>53625302

It's still cheaper than the US RRP, amazon have it for $332.5, = £235GBP. And that's with Amazonian buying power .. so yeh.

And these cards don't go "on sale", the price is the same as they were in Sep 2014 when they were released.

Check the listing though it's clearly a chink who typed it, not a Brit from Manchester.

Oh, well. Then it might be better to wait for 29/03.

That's what I was doing usually, anyway. Adding stuff to cart, and when it adds up enough to use coupon, buy with AliE discount.
Easiest to do with $1 and $2 coupons, but I managed to buy enough stuff to use $6 and $8 coupons (both requiring $59+ order) and $3 off $19+.

>>
>>53627244
don't lie
>>
>>53627465

Go to DHGate for jerseys, sunglasses, pipes.

The trick with sunglasses is to search by the official Rayban model number. Wayfarers are 2140. Most of the pictures there won't have the logos, but will state in the description that they have "original logos." If you're unsure, contact the seller. For Wayfarers, you should look to spend 10-13 dollars on a good pair that are polarized.

For some reason the counterfeit polarized Raybans never have the "P" after Ray Ban on the lenses like the original, but it's a small price to pay.

There was an anon on here who bought 5 about a month ago. He sold them on ebay and made a few shekels before eBay shut his listing down. They sound legit.

Also, you should clean up your links in the future. This is all you need: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/32602049715.html

You faggots destroyed this community.

If you can't handle it then get the fuck off to reddit, fucktard.

I understand how you feel. OP is a SJW faggot cocksucker. He makes these threads before the old one hits the bump limit and idiots keep joining it.

The funny thing about the chink butthurt is that its only OP that gives a shit. We've had a poll that said to change it back and all the Chinese people posting in this thread said they preferred chink shit over Chinese Shopping.

I think OP is doing it just to rustle our jimmies, but it's just obnoxious. What a sad, pathetic life he must lead.

/g/ newfag (sorta) here. Why do you guys buy these chink phones exactly? Cheap? Better? Just curious
>plsnobully

>>53628541

Most people buy them because they are cheaper. The off-brands are hit or miss. I've heard good things about Xiaomi phones though. But you have to check to make sure they will work with your network. Another avenue is buying a refurbished name brand phone from China, which are always in pristine condition.

Most of the time they're 50% less expensive than the flagships offered in the United States, and have some better specs that we care about: SD card slot, 1440p display, fngerprint sensor, better cameras, etc.

THey're cheap and good. Much better than what you'd get non-chink.
Chinkphones usually have very powerful mediatek CPUs, but meh GPUs in comparison. The screens are good but dim, and the cameras are usually pretty bad, worse than the cheaper western phones.

A few nice things about them is that they aren't afraid to put in a huge battery, meaning better batterylife than any stock western phone. They also sometimes come pre-rooted but have little to no roms.

Perfect for poorfags and normies.

They run whatever OS it says in the description of the item.

My refurb htc one m8 came with lollipop, then i got the stock 6.0 ota update from htc.
>>
>>53628933
Only Apple devices can run iOS legally, chink phones run practically exclusively on Android. The version and possible updates depend on the brand. Less known/smaller company phones usually come with an unmodified established or newest version of Android, but don't get many updates, if any at all. Bigger players usually put modified versions of Android and receive regular updates/bug fixes.
>>
>>53626940
you can sort results by how many orders were made. it's usually a good indicator of a dependable seller. also check how old the store is; a shop that's been around for 5 years isn't going to screw you over since they want your repeated business.

A really great watch is the Timex Weekender. It goes for 10-15 dollars and it looks great with everything. The backlight is bright enough to substitute as a flashlight in a pinch. Some people complain about the loud ticking, but it sounds just as loud as a mechanical watch, though the Weekender is a Quartz.

And the other is to migrate to /biz/ as most of the stuff discussed here is not tech related and would fit in biz a lot better then g

Memory card implies smartphone. Every single smartphone for 2007+ can play AAC.

>it's because they said that v0 mp3s have smaller file size and v0 is still very transparent
Just use AAC, VBR5 (fhg/192kbps) is better than 320kbps and VBR6 has even better quality and the almost the same size as mp3 v0 (~256kbps). Or just OPUS on Android which is better than both at 256kbps and way better than mp3 320kbps at 192kbps.

MP3 is shit tier, bro.
Some autistic freetards don't use aac 'cause it's proprietary (but they use mp3 idk why, instead of vorbis/opus).
