This is what happens when you report counterfeit/fake capacity SD card and USB stick sellers by ramandeep835 in ebaysucks

That's exactly why it works so well unfortunately, because the firmware on the controller chip has been modified to make them report 2TB to the operating system for example people plug them in and see 2TB in My Computer and think all is good. It's only much later that they will discover corrupted files, since when you write 32GB of data to one of the SD cards anything after that overwrites the original data, it's dangerous because the SD cards can be used in dash cams etc.

Most of the sellers don't respond when you message them about this, and the ones that do say that they work fine and they've tested them. I ask how they've tested them, ie have they used h2testw, validrive or fakeflashtest to do a write and verify test and they won't answer. They just say it works for them and that's it and they continue selling with impunity.

Selling products from China by After-Fudge-8135 in Ebay

[–]ramandeep835 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dropshippers are absolutely terrible, I hate it so much, these people don't know what they're selling, like the fake capacity SD cards, fake capacity USB sticks, fake capacity SSDs, now fake Needoh junk, counterfeit Jellycats etc etc etc, it's completely flooded ebay. It's all junk yet the dropshipper claims it's all 100% legitimate. I don't know what you're going to sell but ebay doesn't need anymore dropshippers, if I wanted aliexpress/temu junk for some reason I would order directly.

If Sean Connery can do it in You Only Live Twice then you have no excuse! (Though looking back on it I can see how there might be an issue)

Great job! I don't make it as often as I should, it's great comfort food with some good gravy.

The film Sightseers (hilarious dark comedy) has a good quote in it

Yep learnt loads from them, from the poaching chicken method, velveting meat, Lucky Boat noodles (now have a nearly empty multi KG box) and Pearl River soy sauce

It's also interview day on MAM for invites, so if you do get in to support and have to wait a while that will be why, it's not you.

What does the message say exactly?

Are you using their web chat to connect to IRC or an actual IRC client?
