http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.5509Didn't I read in another post that you are still waiting (7++ weeks later) for some items to arrive, one item having somehow found its way to Brazil instead of Canada?

i ordered some stuff online from a place called deal extreeme in hong kong(some of you may know it)
usually things take about a month give or take to get here(from past orders i placed)
well in november i placed a couple of orders and one at the beginning of december....
now the middle of january and NOTHING! oh and the best one...they SOMETIMES provide tracking numbers....the one package says ITS GOING TO BRAZIL (its my new scope on top of that)!!!!!!
so i contacted deal extreme and they are sending another one and are looking into the orders with no tracking #
the only possitive that i can think is IF the package going to brazil somehow makes it here i will have 2 scopes
Not to be funny- but it strikes me that waiting weeks/months for something to show up, dubious ability (if any) to track shipments all to save $10.00 is not a very good argument. What occurs if an item comes in broken? Send it back to Hong Kong, wait a month for it to get there, then wait another month+ for a replacement? Strikes me that if such a thing were to occur, the item, from the day ordered to when you actually receive a working item could be well in excess of 3 months.
You can purchase the proper part, with a proper warranty/replacement program and timeframe, in Canada, for about $22.00
So I have to ask: What is the logic in recommending to people a business in Hong Kong with all sorts of timeframe/logistical issues, for what is guaranteed to be counterfeit product if there is a "brand name" on it- only to save a very few dollars and not promote business in Canada? Counterfeit product shipped from 5000 miles away and getting delivery "someday-maybe" hardly seems like a good recommendation for someone with a problem -today-
