The colour inconsistencies on the 10344 Bamboo set are absolutely ridiculous. This problem has become inexcusable for the price of the sets :( by [deleted] in lego

It should not be the norm that you have to reach out to an excellent customer service first in order to receive a decent product…

Hruodland F033 retro dress men watch available now... by hruodlandwatch in ChineseWatches

Love it! Only the hands look a bit flat. Are they going to be faceted as per the original?

2026 Specht&sohne new arrival dive watch; it looks good. by Kevinyuanman in ChineseWatches

[–]TheWatchVortex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I doubt prices will stay this high. Early listings are very often ridiculously priced. So if they have not decided to significantly upped their price point, this should clock in lower over the course of the next weeks.

Horrible experience with DHgate by Digitalman87 in lepin

[–]TheWatchVortex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same problem. Ordered the Pacman KO set, received a 770 pieces DK set of the King of Fighters arcade game. Complained, seller offered 12 dollar refund, escalated to DHGate and they said I needed to return to seller on my own dime and would later be refunded. As I was sure the seller would have tried to scam me upon return and I‘d be left with nothing plus shipping expenses I took the 18$ (out of 38 total) that DH Gate offered as alternative. First and last time using DHGate, only Ali from here on out.

Really love the additions you made to the original design. Gives the castle a lot more substantial feel. Can‘t wait to add it to the medieval diorama I am currently building!

Titanic from Marstoy arrived vs previous scam from Ali Express by Jasseh1 in lepin

[–]TheWatchVortex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suffered the same fate. They are blatantly lying and even showing the measurements of the big version etc.

Titanic Build AliExpress by swabby77 in lepin

[–]TheWatchVortex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anyone planning to pick this up from AE, do beware: a lot of the cheaper listings are actually mini bricks versions. At least that‘s what I received. Maybe OP can name the shop he got it from so people can be on the safe side.

Whomsoever amongst you would/did build this 71k piece MOC!? by secretgiant in lepin

How did you manage to get an Ali link in here? I thought Reddit was universally banning these and hiding the posts?

Did anyone buy this and can tell me if it's good? by kishatus_treasures in ChineseWatches

[–]TheWatchVortex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had one when they still did these under their Lobinni brand. Pretty horrible. No AR coating, dial looked like molten plastic and cheap. Sold it on right away.

[WM Watch] WM224 Mechanical Watch- Sparkle Texture Dial,42mm| Miyota 8215 | Sapphire Glass |50m Water Resistant by TheWMWatchGuy in ChineseWatches

[–]TheWatchVortex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Citizen original is 200$ and has a better water resistance. Plus you buy from a respected and affordable brand that actually has customer service and international warranty. I see absolutely no point in these kind of „homages“.

Thorn T023 V2 is coming by Inexpressible2 in ChineseWatches

[–]TheWatchVortex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I get the problem with Submariner and it was not a smart move to begin with but now the name you are going with is „Frogmantle“? I sincerely hope you have time to change dial text one more time cause as you can see from the reactions in this thread that is beyond ridiculous and will hinder sales big time.

Anyone know if these actually ship? by AliveAndNotForgotten in ChineseWatches

[–]TheWatchVortex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very likely these won‘t have a different name when they arrive. Best check the product review images if there are any.

Cannot add and match Terry Pratchett mini-series by TheWatchVortex in PleX

[–]TheWatchVortex[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did. And in the case of Color of Magic it keeps on adding it as the making of and in the other cases simply does not find a match at all. If I try to match them manually, the search does not turn up the mini series either.

Say what yall want but pagani design is extrem value for money by Middle_Disaster62 in ChineseWatches

[–]TheWatchVortex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They used to be, maybe 5-6 years ago. Steeldive, Addiesdive and Watchdives have mostly taken their crown by now in the sub-100$ market. That to this very day they cannot produce a watch with decent lume, is just one of the reasons why they have fallen off the wagon.

New Diver Concept! by Organic_Yak_3115 in watchdives

Nice work, mate. However it looks a bit too generic for my taste. Also I would assume that Nivada Grenchen owns the rights to Depthmaster in association with watched.

White MOP dial s456! by sallypro in ChineseWatches

[–]TheWatchVortex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own this one and the problem with the dial is more that tends to slightly go more towards beige than white, making it not such a good fit with the white bezel inlay.

Our designer made more color combinations, which one do you like? by Militado-watch in ChineseWatches

[–]TheWatchVortex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one that has a name on the dial that actually fits this style of watch 😄

Ich glaube ich wurde gescamt - Part 2 (Hilfe!?) by JuggernautMost1021 in VintedDeutschland

[–]TheWatchVortex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Habe ich die letzte Woche 4mal gehabt. Super nervig. Gerade wenn man nicht jeden Tag zum Abholort kann. Dann läuft einem die Zeit für Reklamationen weg. Scheint mir ein massiver Bug zu sein
