If you're unsure who I am, there's a clue just to the left.
You're obviously one of the untouchables, I'd be excluded from half a dozen threads for a comment like that.
But if you can't keep up, I suggest you keep your abusive comments to yourself. They serve absolutely no purpose whatsoever except to create acrimony.
I'll change my name to Mrs One Name, to help you to count if you like.

Nah I still have no idea, typically I don't keep up with all this BS in the GD section, though can't resist when some dope obviously reappears spouting their crap.

I can accept that you have no idea. Do you have all the gear as well?

You just feel the need to pop in and spout your version of crap, without ever considering the topic of the discussion, when your dope takes a hold.

A third one ordered, and paid for, with that one also being cancelled. I have now messaged the seller directly, as suggested by AE, to explain why my orders keep getting cancelled.

Sirry iriot!!

Why you so Lacist.

 

[Vinty]

They wouldn't be ridiculed if they made mistakes

Everyine makes mistakes.

 

[ReganAndCarter]

Why you so Lacist.

Benny's fault.

 

[Mrs Ten Names]

Why you so Lacist.

You've got to laugh at those who struggle with their own language.

Everyine makes mistakes.

 

[Mrs Ten Names]

Benny's fault.

Reganandcarter blaming 60's, 70's and 80' TV for his out-of-fashion humour.
He'll be quoting Alf Garnet next.

I do love it when some ridicule foreigners for their pronunciation of English, when they themselves struggle with their own mother tongue.
I suspect foreigners speak, spell and understand the use of punctuation in English better than some English people.

No reply from the seller, and I have rather lost faith in buying direct from China. Instead, I searched FB market, for something similar, and found an almost identical item, also made in China, but for 150% of the cost, though delivered to my door, the same day. It's on test at the moment, on the kitchen table. I'll see if I can manage to get it fitted, during daylight tomorrow.

This one, thought I didn't pay that price....

Seems well-made, likely a brushless dc motor. I was looking for one which didn't stick down too much from the ceiling, because the bedroom TV, is mounted close up to the ceiling. Had it drooped to low, it would have been in the way of viewing the TV.

So we've proved aliexpress isn't reliable.

Dodgy ?

 

[securespark]

Is Amazon reliable?

 

[Mrs Ten Names]

Is Amazon reliable?

To be fair, I do find Amazon reliable. It's the couriers, or the initial suppliers, that tend to fail more so than Amazon.
I try not to use them if it's avoidable, for various reasons. But when the convenience overrides my sensibilities, I do use them.

 

[Harry Bloomfield]

Is Amazon reliable?

My partner makes good use of them, though I never use them, but from what I gather - they are mostly reliable. Personally, I have had more dealings with AE, and they have always been reliable, except for this instance, and this one seller. Both companies rely upon their sellers.
