Miserable b*****ds, the least they could have done is offer you a refund on your next purchase.

I love their optimism that they think I might ever order anything from them again :lol:

They replied again, telling me the phone was shipped and asking me not to reply again, as they were so busy dealing with other orders. Of course, I replied again.

They've replied this morning telling me not to worry the phone is definitely on its way <_< They also asked why I raised a dispute with Paypal and asked me to cancel it :lol:

Chancers. Loads of deals from overseas but this is the kind of shit that puts me off.

What did you order in the first place?

I ordered the black version of the Elephone S8 because Elephone told me they were in stock on Aliexpress. Turns out that was a load of shite as the blue one I ordered was shipped not long after by Gearbest.

As soon as Gearbest shipped I tried to cancel this one - which is the first message on the screenshots.

I've not had any problems with Gearbes,  other than the longish delivery time first time I ordered, but I wont be ordering from an overseas marketplace like Aliexpress again

Wait, they tell you to contact PayPal to cancel the order, and are now asking why you opened a PayPal dispute and that you should cancel it? You couldn't make it up.emoji23.png

Not quite. Aliexpress customer services told me to contact paypal. The messages I posted are from the seller. I assume its a bit like ebay

Some difference in price between the S8 and the S9 that's coming out soon.    https://www.gearbest.com/elephone-s9-_gear/?lkid=11784096    It basically looks like a clone of the Samsung Galaxy S8.  I like that they have a colour described as granny hair though.:lol:
