    Reason why I only buy at AliExpress and only stuff I don’t ingest or wear on me for longer times.

      Yes!

      This is the way. Why pay double for eBay or Amazon to ship me stuff from AliExpress anyways for like 5 day faster shipping at best.

      But only for the same garbage that they will sell anyways. Shoes are leather and can be fixed and have been at a cobbler for like $40 to new. Clothing should be bought once and last at least a year if not much much longer. So I buy from better brands in person if possible.

      I don’t get why I should pay Amazon to be a shitty middle man that is trying to destroy the world more for my crap.

          I bought from eBay recently and I got a package from Amazon. I don’t buy from either anymore.

              Yeah I tried. I actually couldn’t get a real support agent and eventually the refund period auto triggered cause the seller couldn’t figure out how for me to return it.

              eBay doesn’t care. They just want their little piece.
