Does anyone know the difference between Redmi and Xiaomi series of TVs? Since their debut in India in 2014, I've bought nearly 100 phones and more than a dozen TVs from the company. These are for friends and relatives and I don't make a profit from them. Now they are offering Redmi and Xiaomi...

WTH? That's the most ridiculous T&C I've ever heard of. The sender should be able to send a piece of rock and claim the insured amount if it's lost in transit.

Check your PM box.

I saw that earlier. 3.1k + shipping is too much when a brand new one is available for 3.55k shipped.

Looking for a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 1 or 2GB. It's for a one-off experiment so I'm looking for a used one to minimise expenditure. Online price of new ones are about 3.5k for 1GB, 4.2k for 2GB shipped. Please keep that in mind when making offers. I may also consider an RPi 3B if the price is...

No, I don't have a HAM licence but I think it's only a desirable attribute rather than an essential requirement. I applied for a free receiver a few years ago. I have a lot of experience in electronics and they seemed to be satisfied with that. The problem at that time was that the view of the...

Now that AliExpress is out of reach, has anyone ordered anything from their parent site alibaba.com? If so, please share your experience. Alibaba is obviously aimed at the wholesale market but the minimum order quantity for some products is 1 pc. The site can be opened normally without a VPN.

Is this compatible for use with Raspberry Pi and FlightRadar24 software?

Thanks for the reply. I've been using the site for many years too. It's not only enjoyable but also practical when some family members are travelling. Yes, that thread is old but not too old. It needs some investigation. Ah, India. There's so much inertia. I'm old enough to remember when a...

I'm sure many of you are familiar with the flight tracking site flightradar24.com. I live in a remote hilly region and tracking of flights near the one airport in my state is very poor. Planes always disappear after they descend to 5 or 6000 ft. To improve coverage, I'm thinking of applying for...

No, thanks. As I said, it's for an LGA 1151 motherboard and this model is compatible with ONLY 8th and 9th gen CPUs.

Have you checked current prices? Prices of NVMe SSDs are dropping as they gain widespread use. Examples of 1TB drives at MD Computers: Crucial P3 - 4.1k WD SN570 - 4.25k There are some slightly cheaper models but they are much slower and these two offer very good performance to price ratios.

I want to buy an 8th or 9th Gen Intel processor for my spare LGA 1151 motherboard (it's not compatible with other generation CPUs) How much I'm willing to pay will depend on the exact processor type. As an example, yesterday someone put up an i7-8700K for 5k in the WTS section, but someone else...

I have a new unused 1151 motherboard but it's only for 8th and 9th gen CPUs. It's a Gigabyte GA-B365M Gaming HD. It was bought by mistake by someone some time ago. He thought his motherboard was defective but it turned out to be the processor. I tested it with an i5-8400 and ran it for about 2...

I think you need to make one correction. That's a 240GB drive, not 256GB.

Thanks. They are one of the oldest online shops for computer parts in India. It's unfitting that they have such a buggy site. Same goes for primeabgb, the itwares, elitehubs, etc. My experience has been that, in general, Kolkata sites are fast, well designed and responsive.

Thanks. Will try again tomorrow. You must be right about the site being clunky. When I tried to log in, a pop-up said that my password has been reset and told me to do the "Forgot password" thing. That requires submitting my email address and phone number to receive an OTP. The response to that...

The last time I bought anything from theitdepot.com was more than 10 years ago and I'm having problems logging in to my account. I emailed them but haven't received a reply yet. Does anyone know if they charge for shipping? Many online shops provide free shipping these days and, with the...

Thanks. My current requirement is an analog multimeter, specifically an MTQ 1090 by a company called MetroQ. Moglix has the lowest price by a considerable margin. The company has two models - MTQ 890 and MTQ 1090. They look somewhat similar at a quick glance but have major different specs and a...

The subject line really says it all. I've known about moglix.com for quite some time but never purchased anything from them. Are they reliable, selling genuine products?
