    Review Amazon India - Feedback Thread

    This is how I received my lego set from amazon. Worst condition box. Definitely a customer return and box is so battered. Sealed using tape from all sides. Had to initiate replacement. Also no outer box, directly put my address on main box.

    Indian Stock Market and Mutual Funds

    If an IPO is subscribed at least 2x then I guess there is no point in applying for more than one 1 lot (assuming retail) of 15K right? I don't see point of unnecessarily blocking more amount when max I would get is 1 LOT or None. Am I right or wrong?

    Indian Stock Market and Mutual Funds

    Do people here apply for like every IPO for the 1 lot amount (15K) and if they get listing gains, sell shares, get profit and move to next IPO? Obviously, this is if you get IPO alloted.

    Any good audio/mp3 players?

    I am sure I have the rockboxed Sansa Clip+ somewhere in my home but no clue where. Brought it through a GO on TE thanks to Katamandude (KMD). Edit: For people who don't know, GO means "Group Order" and KMD was the user here who would help procuring stuff from US based websites. We all paid him...

    The Lego (and Knockoffs) Thread

    Using another rebrickable instruction for the VW T1 Camper Van, made this beetle. I am glad I did because it gave me idea of how the blue beetle would look if I were to buy and since I can make beetle using this, I don't see any point buying the blue beetle.

    T that looks pretty expensive. Almost a rip off. Is it from anywhere or from US rates? Why does he need 1500 clearance fee when costs is gonna be standard 40% rate.

    Getting Products From China Using SHOP AND SHIP

    Contact the alibaba seller over its inbuilt chat and ask them the price with shipping to local chinese address. Usually upto even 5-7 kg it is $2-$4 only. Once it is all good, give him the name to be put (I assume there will be a shipping mark something provided by aramex), tell him to make...

    Planet express only for USA? Also, how is customs handled in this? I have only one experience and that too was a leap of faith. I went to this website.. https://importsfromchina.com/ Contacted them on whatsapp / call and they send me the rates per kg. It is 2000 per kg but as soon as you go...

    Getting Products From China Using SHOP AND SHIP

    1600 is definitely pretty steep (and over than their 700 customs processing charge) and still customs getting charged or not is not known, right? I would instead go with a freight forwarder in this case as their charges can be under 1000 per kg and they handle customs for you so you only pay by...

    The Lego (and Knockoffs) Thread

    Dismantled the earlier made modular building and now made the Lamborghini Contouch car using the pieces of VW T1 Camper Van. Model is very fragile. Will mostly dismantle this next weekend and make something else.

    The Lego (and Knockoffs) Thread

    Yes totally useless sale. I have seen better prices before. Concorde i have seen for 14K/ 15K and today it is 17k. What a rip off. Love the concorde but Damn that thing is big and I stay in a flat so no place to display. Even the knockoff isn't cheap (considering knockoff prices).
