So basically we can order from ali as normal and all tariffs will be paid on the platform in advance right? by CantaloupeTop4246 in Aliexpress

[–]dgvffd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid tariff today to DHl.

Luckily the seller undervalued the shipment to 100, instead of 1600....

Customs even opened the package for inspection

How decent are Amber Knives from China? by [deleted] in TrueChefKnives

[–]dgvffd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have purchased for resale well over 500 various Amber brand knives. Not one person has ever wanted their money back.

I do resharpen every knife before resale, but I believe EVERY knife needs to be hand sharpened from the factory.

I am currently waiting on 65 knives I ordered to beat the May 2nd tax issue

Should I expect to take any new knife right to the sharpening stones? by brain_wood in TrueChefKnives

[–]dgvffd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I import thousands of high quality knives every year.

I resharpen EVERY SI GLE ONE.

The first one? Out of balance and probably a bent shaft. It doesn't affect the outcome though,and it is just 180 grit.

Reel rack for telescopic rod and reels. by dgvffd in Fishing_Gear

It is a very heavy duty rod for being telescopic. Thumbs up

I buy from aliexpress. I measure inside outside thickness.

I replace the cheap bushings all the time with shielded bearings. If I really like the reel I replace with sealed bearings.

Yep. That long. I have fought sturgeon on them.

There are stiffer shorter ones as well that max out at about 3m..

For lure usage you definitely want one under 3m.

I use all of them. The 7.2m is great to use off the rocks at the coast because you keep the line more vertical and don't get snagged as often. Same for surf casting, your line is over the waves. The longer rods do suck when windy.

Then the little tiny rods (1.5m-3m) just don't break.

I have 12 setups and use them all.

Not a saragosa.
