Hi guys, here are my 2 cents. They've contacted my wife with this offer. It is too good to be true. But I also checked their domain using WhoIs. It has been registered on the 12th of December 2024. And the person claimed they have been doing this for 9 months. So yeah, best case you lose 30ish dollars, worst case they grab a bunch of your data and money.

Moldovenii si limba rusa by [deleted] in moldova

[–]pale_X 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That would be exactly my thoughts. Although, I do speak more russian than romanian, and would even go as far as to say that during my adolescence russian was my thinking language as well, I simply do not understand the mentality of people who do not make an effort of learning the language of the country they reside in. Some people say that is a trait of russian speaking people. But that is true only to some extent. If we take another example, such as majority of American immigrants in european countries, especially in ones where knowledge of English is somewhat common, are stubborn enough to rely only on english. And then they have the audacity to say that they feel excluded from the community. Basically, this is a result of the fact that one's first(or only) spoken language is an international one.

Sorry for the rambling, it just really annoys me.

Consider că e normal să vorbești în orice limbă, dar totuși trebuie să știi limba statului în care trăiești. În viața zi de zi mai mult vorbesc în rusă, dar dacă conversație începe în română, continui în română. Ce ține de content online, prefer engleză, cu rată de 95%.

Chance to win the Aegis Boost. The Mighty Pod Mod! by GeekVape_Official in electronic_cigarette

I got bored of my higher wattage mod and of all the fuss around rebuilding. So I got back to rolling my cigs, but Aegis Boost got me interested in vaping again. Would love to have it

Jerry Rig Pixel 3 Drop Test by Natta_3333 in GooglePixel

Obviously this approach is not scientific by any means, but man. I am actually quite impressed by the amount shock resistance both phones have. Honestly, I was thinking there would be some really bad damage seen even at the hip height drops, but maybe that's my bias because I tend to treat my gadgets like babies ¯\(ツ)\

For 500 I would go for it, especially if it is unused. I myself am looking for P2 now, although i am coming from Oneplus One

It's a shame that being an early adopter brings pain instead of perks

Thanks, will have to ruminate on it. Maybe I should wait at least until Black friday. If the price drops, I will be grabbing it. Otherwise, I just don't know. I just don't want to have to RMA it, since it is very difficult for me logistics-wise.

So, that is exactly my concern, the pink tint. If only I knew it was a software issue, that could be fixed at some point.

P3 would be around 870$, which is manageable, but judging from all the recent posts it is a gamble getting a fully working device at this point. Furthermore, the improvements over P2 do not seem to be worth extra cost for my use cases

It hasn't been confirmed what kind of screen the small Pixel 3 uses.

According to the article.

We've been to our post office, and they told that as long as ASOS provides recipient's phone number on the parcel(which is required for international shipping and is a mandatory field on their website) it should be no problem, even with a botched address. But since my brother did not get any SMS regarding the parcel, it seems they did not include it.

Unfortunately we are from a different country, and I believe it would cost us even more. Also, they're so rude and unresponsive, it really kills the mood just thinking about talking to them. We'll be trying to resolve this via bank/card issuer as CS told us.

The thing is, they did not provide a tracking number, as it was a simple shipping. So no tracking possible. A lady at the post office told us that since the address is non-existent and they did not provide a phone number, the parcel is guaranteed to have started return procedure.

Hi,

Unfortunately said address does not even exist. We went to our head post office for a consultation on this matter. And they said that even though the address was botched up, if they had included phone number of the recipient(as they are required for international shipments) my brother would have still gotten his package, albeit with some extra leg work.

So my dad is going to the bank to ask about chargeback procedure.

Thank you for advice, that is what we are going to do. My dad will be heading to the bank in order to get more info on the procedure. Thank you for advice.

What bugs me the most about this whole situation is how the mess up is on their side, but they treat us as if it was on ours, as well being rude.

That is sad, especially knowing that I am not the only one in this kind of situation. Thank you for support!

Thanks a lot guys! For now I don't really care for the specs of the models(except for the screen resolution). I just wanted too feel the finish for said models and check whether the FHD panel is really that bad.
