Cheap Website for decent laptops!
Hey ladies, I wanted to share a site my best friend showed me a while back for beauty products and hair extensions but I did alittle more digging on this site and found some decent cheap laptops. My ex broke my MacBook back in April when we split, SO I've had to work mostly from my IPhone which has been a pain and with moving and all I can't really afford to drop $700-1200 on a good laptop but I found some laptops on this site called aliexpress that most have 8GB of ram and range of memory from 128-500GB. I've seen some as low as $280 and $300, so I figured this would be a good place to buy a temporary laptop until I can save up for the one I actually want. So a website with cheap GOOD beauty products and laptops, a cam girls dream lol. I'm gonna purchase a computer off here in the next month, I'll keep you updated with my experience computer wise but I can tell you that the beauty products are worth getting off there.. Not to mention they have clothing and lingerie too but be sure to check the sizing and measurements because they don't all come from the same company, so they may fit true to size, smaller or larger.

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
Yea, I go w/newegg.com, they do have some deals, also the thing is they need to be legit & reliable..I had a sitch where there was something w/my CC, & I'm talking about a fair amt of $. It was really the CC's 'fault' (actually mine) & that's the 1st thing Bank asked..is this a legit biz? Anyway, it turned out fine but could've been a real clusterf*k Just saying hon. :)

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
Be careful buying beauty products from there most of them are fakes with illegal ingredients in them, you could literally be putting anything on your face. That's where all the eBay sellers get their fake naked pallets from.
I've used Ali express for years for bits and bobs, there is a lot of fake stuff on there, a lot of the clothes for example, they use photos of designer items then you receive a cheap made thing that looks sort of like the picture but not at all haha!
I'd try and find someone who has bought from the seller you have seen and do as much research as possible xxx

Don't buy a laptop off of Aliexpress your better off buying it at Walmart for the same price . At least at Walmart you can return it or get warranty on it .you can find a decent laptop for $300 at Walmart.

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
I've been a customer on this site since my friend showed me and yeah I know the beauty products are fake but I've not had any adverse side effects yet and I was just trying to help those out that don't have bukoos of money to spend on beauty products and electronics because with rent, insurance, student loans, current tuition and car payments, I really can't afford to spend a shit ton of money on makeup, so if I can gets dupes of my favorite like Kat Von D's Lolita for $2 versus $20, I'm gonna keep buying off Aliexpress until I'm able to afford it at Sephora again. Like I said, I'm gonna buy this $319, 8gb ram, 750gb and give a review of my experience with the product when it comes in. My ex shattered my old means of making money so I'm desperate for a lot of memory on a laptop and don't want to go buy an Asus from Walmart that has half the memory and half the ram.

What's the processor on it?
Please be careful with the make up, drugstore stuff is better, I've seen some pretty scary stuff online about infections and people being hospitalised, and obviously you can't earn in hospital! Xx

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
Thanks for the heads up, Sally!
The seller has 96.8% positive feedback with 416 sales...
This is the title description "1920X1080P FHD IPS Screen 8GB+750GB Windows 8.1 Ultrathin Laptop Notebook Computer Quad Core Up to 2.42 GHz" They sold 29 of the same one and it has 4.9/5 stars, so it sounds pretty promising. I did a YouTube search of laptops off aliexpress and they all seem pretty legit. I have a Logitech c930e webcam, so I'm not really worried about any of the built in webcams or what not either. They had some HD ones on there that looked similar to the C920 for $5 so I might get one of those as a back up and just test it out. It's worth a shot.

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
ONLY BUY HAIR FROM ALI EXPRESS
ONLY BUY HAIR. AND BE WEARY OF THAT
i have mad experience with ali express, I have bought multiple things from them and all electronics fell apart
AE also gives away mad shit to make customers happy. post 1 review that is bad and you will get free shit out the ass fishing for a good review.
I would go to a pawn shop before I trust them

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
Well, Aliexpress isn't just one entity. It's sort of like an ebay with multiple sellers. So you have to pay attention to the seller, the seller's feedback, number of sales, how many times the product you're interested in has been bought.. I've bought hair, beauty products and clothes off this site. I have not had one bad experience with any of the sellers that I've personally bought from and some sellers are located in the US and outside the US. You just have to pay attention to detail and do your research, but in my opinion, I think it's worth it if you are a smart shopper and do your research.

and experiences like this is exactly why they offer buyer protection, just like EBAY.

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
I like woot.com for good deals on computers. That's where I got my refurbed i7 laptop for $500.

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
Gonna chime in again, I got, in addition to a warranty from the co (a newegg seller) Google protection plan. J/s. :)
Also, as far as cheap makeup goes, you can get good stuff @ the Dollar Stores to, that LA Girl brand is said to be great, you can also get name brand drugstore stuff, that's overstock or discontinued.
Also Ross or Marshall had some makeup that's marked down/overstock/discontinued.
Also NYC brand (sold @ Target) is very inexpensive, I love their Skyrise mascara ($2.00), I've seen their stuff mentioned in Allure mag Best Of..

Hey, I read the entire thread twice, and I am certain (Aliexpress) was not there-didn't see it and you just typed it in afterwards. But who knows, I'm human- maybe i'm wrong right? Either way, there's no need to be insulting... especially if the idea is to try to win people over to your friend's Aliexpress site as a promotional tool on SW. At this point your friend just lost a sale. You don't insult a potential customer.

ok I get that but my point is...its a pain in the ass to return
when it is my livelihood, I wouldn't trust them
doing research does not help when the fake reviews are there.
I order a lot of stuff from there or use to. I treated it like ebay but after being burned a cpl times, I wouldn't trust my income with it.
Income is different than clothes, makeup or whatnot ... just my opinion

Maybe some of us don't live in driving distance to go to Ross or Marshall's and I want something more pigmented than LA Girl from the Dollar Store. And some areas don't have a target or Walmart either. I had to move to a super rural area versus living in the city to save after splitting with my ex.

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
Like I originally said, I'm just trying to help people out that are looking for different options. Everybody doesn't have to be right all the time. I didn't think this was gonna blow up into a debate because I was trying to give people more options and share a website.

Just trying to help, I have no idea where you live, & as I also mentioned there's Dollar Stores, Targets just about everywhere. I don't see where anyone's trying to be right all the time.
It's a forum & everyone has the right to share their opinions. I know I (& it seems like others too) were just trying to help & give you a heads up about thing. If you want to shop there great, I was just trying to offer alternatives.
Have a great night.

whenever any of us throw out ideas or sites, it does seem like a debate but in my opinion I think most were just trying to give options and warnings. I know I was.
I honestly dont care if laptop comes from, my worry is how reliable is that laptop for camming
Personally I am not a return person. I dont have the patience for it at all.
also look at reviewers like this...
Most people that do reviews are not cammers. We straight up abuse our laptops.
so my only worry is how reliable is it for camming?
When Tsani ordered hers a while ago, I was leary about her order for her(yes I remember that post lol) BUT Tsani knows laptops, she knows what she pushes out and she knew she needed a gaming style computer.
Be weary of reviewers for laptops... you want to have gamer review it. Put those cores and ram to work
Even gamers are shocked at the amount of CPU we use when streaming (this was w the encoder)

YES!^ It's funny I just bought a lappie from newegg, it has some good cpu but I was also looking @ gamers today on there, & someone was saying about it being misleading, I forget exactly what, but it was a gamer person!

Re: Cheap Website for decent laptops!
Well an update, I ended up doing some more searching and actually found the exact Mac I wanted refurb'd on Ebay through a reliable seller for $450, so I didn't go through Aliexpress.
