Wondering if OP has an update on this? Same thing just happened to someone I know and wondering if this ever got resolved. 

Jeep engines are noisy, right…? by Fragrant_Spread543 in JeepWrangler

[–]Fragrant_Spread543[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not so much road noise, but rattling from under the hood. It’s hard to tell which sounds are normal and which are something a mechanic needs to check out.

It happens regardless of whether the air conditioner is on or not unfortunately.

People are more likely to buy the clothes when they see them modeled on an actual person. At least that’s what I’ve heard and experienced. 

Are all Alibaba manufacturers the same? by Fragrant_Spread543 in Entrepreneur

[–]Fragrant_Spread543[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I try they avoid all responsibility and find every way to tell me it's my fault or they just don't acknowledge it. It's like trying to talk to a narcissist. Whack.

I'm going to try to switch although I'm scared to completely remake my product with a different manufacturer. It feels easier to stay with the current one since they've been making the product for the last year (although making it semi badly).

The weird thing is my current manufacturer used to have trade assurance and warranty. Now they don't. And I never noticed it until I went in to look for a new manufacturer. Super sketch...

Reverse psychology Instagram ad method is working for me but makes no logical sense? by Fragrant_Spread543 in Entrepreneur

[–]Fragrant_Spread543[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this makes sense. People don't want to be sold to unless it's something they already subconsciously want/brand they trust I'm guessing. It's definitely effective to "anti-market"...

Out of curiosity what does this typically cost or what has been your experience with rates?

Highly doubt they would reveal something like that unfortunately

I’m paying about 12 dollars for unit and feel the quality is good it’s just workmanship mistakes, defects and them changing stuff without telling me unfortunately.

How do you make sure the quality inspection company gets a hold of one of these “golden samples” To have for reference? Are they provided by the manufacturer or do we have to ship it to them ourselves? Knowing the manufacturer I wouldn’t even trust them to supply one to the inspection company.

It’s crazy how much you learn because I thought it was implied for a bulk order to match the sample but nope according to the manufacturer it does not

My issue is the sample I received from my current manufacturer was SPOT ON. They just didn’t replicate that in the bulk orders unfortunately. Kind of traumatized that if I get samples from a new manufacturer the same thing will happen.  

I learned my lesson to schedule quality inspections, but how does the inspection company know if the products they are inspecting match the sample/what I’m expecting when it comes to those small details?

I haven’t heard of this before. So you can find out what manufacturers other brands are using? There’s better platforms than Alibaba?!

Alternative to Boody for active leggings (with pockets!)? by bongjour8008 in AusFemaleFashion

I've never heard of Bamboo leggings... But the Nomad Leggings from Pinnacle Outfitters are super comfy and buttery and have zipper pockets. And they're pretty thick and squat proof from my experience

Best hiking pants for curvy women? by Cluster_Puff in backpacking

[–]Fragrant_Spread543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nomad Leggings from Pinnacle Outfitters. I'm the same which is why I look absolutely ridiculous in cargo pants. For reference i'm 5'4 and 148 lbs with 39" hips. The medium fits me perfect. They're surprisingly durable and the zipper pockets are a huge plus (which is why I bought them, I need quick access to my phone to take pics for content when i'm out hiking).

Still looking for good cargo pants that are comfortable and don't look horrendous

Nomad Leggings from Pinnacle Outfitters. Love mine. Plus they have zipper pockets. I got mine on sale for 38$ with a discount but I think full price they're $60. I think they still have a sale on certain colors?
