    Interesting though doesn't surprise me. Have some stories.. I used to dabble lots with the Chinese sites years ago when they first became big. I soon learned who were good, what to look out for etc. I was basically buying toys for myself that fit within my interests. One main thing I'd buy was led torches of many types. During the buying of the torches I stumbled upon an unusual type - most led torches are bright and although they 'throw' the light a fair way, it was never ever fully formed into a good beam. I'd bought a torch that had the best ever reflector design. Sure it took most of the torch length up to do it but a single 18650 battery could throw a large latch of white onto something over a mile away. It was cheap too. One day I showed a few mates who went hunting at night sometimes. They asked me to supply them and so I ordered a torch, sets of high quality rechargeable batteries and a small quality charging unit that would work in a vehicle too. Total cost to get to me was only £22 per unit (everything in) and I doubled my money. I ordered more of the same and those people told their friends. Soon I was importing 40 units per month and selling them immediately. I used the same suppliers and we built a working relationship. Heck I was even given huge reductions of costs due to quantities. Sure sometimes something wouldn't work quite right but it was rare and the supplier would bend over backwards to help. Then it happened.. A batch of 40 sets came in. (I check everything works fully before selling on) 40% of the items were faulty. They looked new but I would say had either been rejects at production or returns sold as new. I complained. My supplier tried things such as make a video to show the torch does not light up. I did so and they blamed the battery. I then had to provide videos of interchanging between devices and so on. They even went as far as claiming I had a faulty house electricity supply that had damaged the batteries which had then damaged the torches! Unfortunately for them I could see what they were doing - stalling time to go beyond the claim time limit. I got to PayPal first and explained fully and with full documentation and video links. Luckily they found in my favour and I got my money. I actually walked away from importing those kits because of the tricks that supposedly nice supplier had tried on me, a trusted and important overseas buyer. It's my belief (in my case) that they thought I wasn't checking every item fully at this end and that I would compensate end buyers and take the hit for the items and not the supplier. It's utterly scummy how Chinese suppliers work. A UK story. eBay. At one point I collected early digital cameras. Junk resolution and short battery life and limited functionality but two things - images have a gorgeous 'feel' to them - a bit like film Does. Secondly is that these things cost many hundreds when new and yet I could snap one up for a few quid. (Often they came with a memory card that had been wiped. You must never ever sell a used memory card that you once had because part of my hobby was using software to recover all of the images that had ever been taken. Recovering 13x deleted images is easy.. You'd be surprised at how much home porn couples did with those newfangled digital cameras. Just a warning!) I paid £22 for a camera I'd sought for years. It came from down south. It arrived not working. It took really obscure batteries but I managed to source some very good ones. Still didn't work. I messaged the seller. He claimed I had rubbish batteries - I pointed out to check my eBay purchases as it shows just how many similar cameras I'd bought, that I was a pro photographer and I knew my sh*t. He kept on denying and blaming me. I took many high quality photos of the camera and had by now used his parcel return address to look at his house on Streetview. He was clearly a joiner or tinkered with it all - his house was surrounded by ornate and OTT timber projects. Looking at the camera, it used crews to hold it together - every single screw lined up with each other perfectly. That does not happen during manufacture and was something someone like an obsessed joiner would do with wood screws! I called him out on it and asked if he'd taken it apart and of course he denied that. I dragged PayPal in and showed the evidence. They found in my favour immediately. I received a message from the seller that ranted at me, called me a scamming whatever and that it was the last time he would ever sell online due to people like me lol. The camera? It actually looked fine but wasn't quite perfectly squared - as if it was slightly twisted. I had nothing to lose and so tried twisting it myself. It fixed the thing! Seems he'd done a repair and assembled it placing joints out of line and contacts not quite true. He did indeed sell a faulty item but it was something I managed to repair. I only buy from UK businesses now on eBay - proper UK sellers. At one point I traded a lot - I was milking over a grand a week. I'm serious. I was selling collectable retro goods just as the fad hit big style. I was there and riding a wave. Gradually others started too and profits nosedived. It was my time to get out. I no longer use such places (China for buying - eBay for selling) due to the many hurdles and pitfalls that are there. A shame really because it could be a good thing. Your mike. Yes you have lost funds but you have nothing to lose. Try dismantling further and see if it's a messy soldering joint further inside - it could well be due to the high amounts they churn out and quality suffers. You've nothing to lose.
