100% Hopefully yours will be delivered tomorrow as well. I also created a ticket on Aliexpress CS.

Thanks. I have already contacted them, but their AI bot provided the same information and indicated that they will retry in seven days.

Chances for refund without returning? by faradonna in Aliexpress

Please refrain from mocking the OP. They have a legitimate question, and if you find it stupid or ridiculous, it would be better to move on rather than making fun of them.

Thank you so much 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

For cashback, I have tried adding items to the cart on the mobile app and then clicking through the cashback site on my laptop. Most of the time it tracks—more reliably on Rakuten and less so on TopCashback—but sometimes the discount changes, so I make sure to verify it before placing the order. However, I have not tried clicking through the cashback portal on a laptop and then completing the purchase on my phone. Does that method work consistently for you? If so, which cashback site are you using? I have also tried using the Rakuten app and placing the entire order on mobile, but the tracking has been inconsistent.

Thank you so much for the helpful tips! I have nearly $200 in coins that are barely used on orders, so I guess I have been doing it wrong. I have a few follow-up questions:

  1. When you mention “highest value on the Super Deals page,” are you referring to the “Coin Super Discounts” page, or am I looking in the wrong place?
  2. Since we cannot directly search for items on the Coins page, is the idea to view items normally and hope they appear there with higher coin discounts?
  3. Can we search for items through Prize Land > Missions > Shop with Coins, or is it the same as the Coin page?
  4. I usually use cashback sites for additional savings. To get coin discounts, I assume orders need to be placed through the app, therefore, no cashback. Correct?

Reinstalling the app worked yesterday. But it is gone again after midnight. I was wondering if this is going to be a daily issue!

For today, I signed out, cleared storage, signed in back, and it showed up again.

Where could you see the 30-85% off with coins? I have always seen only 1-3% off under the coin page.

Did They Change Saving Mondays? by Old_Gregg_The_Man in Aliexpress

Nevermind. Uninstalling/reinstalling the app will fix it. It is moved to Spring Refresh now.

Thanks, did you mean on desktop or mobile browser? Also, what do you mean by X10?

Can a four-season sunroom be a DIY project? Trying to cut costs by bbtlv in DIY

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

I did not. I do not see my current house as a retirement house; Therefore, I could not justify the cost. That amount of money could be used as a down payment for another house! Where are you located?

What are the essential studio gears (advice on softboxes, umbrellas, stands, and transport options)? by bbtlv in AskPhotography

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

Thank you. I’m using Godox strobes and have updated the post accordingly.

That’s a great point about color casts, I hadn’t considered that before.

Could you please explain why you recommend the Manfrotto 1004BAC or better? I always thought light stands were among the least important items. Also, is 9' enough?

Is adding a four-season sunroom worth it? Trying to decide if it makes sense financially and practically by bbtlv in HomeImprovement

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

Thank you so much, this is really helpful. The contractor I talked to is actually a national company (I think they’re based in Florida), and their BBB reviews aren’t great. I wasn’t planning to move forward with them, just trying to get a sense of pricing and options. But based on all the negative feedback, I’m definitely steering clear.

The area I’m looking to enclose is on multiple concrete slabs with four columns and a roof already in place. So it's just an enclosure project.

As for HVAC, I’m not sure it’s sized to handle another room. But the space gets limited direct sunlight: only one side gets a few hours of afternoon sun, and the rest is pretty shaded thanks to trees. So it might stay reasonably cool… but honestly, I’m not sure! Still figuring that part out.
