Common case

One thing customers are guaranteed get their money back if things went wrong

Also got a headset with mic using 3.5mm jack

Around $16 or $17

But after 2 months, dieded

Ratings are deceiving because it is only upon receiving it

There are 3 different automatic types:

1 for water/ alcohol sanitizer

1 for foam soap

1 for shampoo/ body soap

But cannot last! Please do not buy.

Same products sold in Malaysia is 20% cheaper than online in Singapore using currency equilisation. Without being able to touch is definitely risky.

My spouse was annoyed over the purchase of perforated supermarket plastic bags from Shoppee a week ago where the size arrived was much smaller and was told to get refund only if she sents it back at SingPost which could be a $4  based on the weight of the few rolls.

Actually this kind of thing should be very rugged and almost fuss-free. Sensors rather spoil so if really cannot work I suspect the designer programmed it to last only for a short while.

I was checking out on Shoppee, their sellers also cheat loudy and boldly

Initially, they can be honest and then become scammers

On average, online actually cost 20%- 60% more

Worst, the quality may not be good

These sellers are just trying to cheat. I have never heard of supermRket plastic bags measuring the horizontal length at waist level and not at the base. 

She can easily just accept the wrong items and write a bad ratinfpg to warn others. But she sent it back instead. So there is no ratings and likely no reports on return / refund.

Got to accept that not all are good. Roughly 3/10 products are cheap, good and durable

next round before you buy, go through buyers' reviews. Only need to look at the worse reviews and decide to go ahead or not

That's why never trust those fb reviews, and never buy things from fb market place.

Shopee and lazada dun hv such problem. You try to create some fake reviews and I'll pay you $1000 if you can make it

Fake review also got this service. You know Fiver ? You can literally find tons of these services . Usually I noticed from India which I not surprise.
