I seriously doubt this. Pls don't make the mistake of looking at available space and thinking it's 2tb because you saw it written there. 2tb for $6! Haba Bros. These Chinese people will manipulate the software and you will see 2 tb not knowing its only 100 or 200mb. Best way is to do a use an app like H2testw and run a test. Better do it fast so you'll open dispute and get your money back
I know more about this than you do bro, before I buy anything I first of all look at the reviews.

This particular one that I bought, I have already put over 100 movies and some system applications. So don't condemn what you don't know.

I know what i bought and I'm enjoying it.

This was how I bought a 256GB flash drive back then in school at an unbelievable price, it later ended in premium tears.

To know if you got a good deal, send movies of about 50-100GB into the flash, and see how many plays....lol
I'm a movie person, so I have already done the needful.
So nothing to joke about here. wink

If you say so. Although I'll appreciate it if you run the test and post results here. Then I'll clearly believe you know more than I do. Hell I'll even apologize. We learn every day. Awaiting the test. The app is free. Also you might want to educate yourself from this video. If not for anything $6 for 2tb is enough to ring warning bells. How much is a 128gb micro sd card form san disk or Samsung. If the movie files you copied are small files then it might copy, if they are large files (above 500mb or 1gb), the files will copy and many of them won't play.

Last year, jumia was running a promo. A friend saw one 500gb Samsung memory card for #3000. He sent me the link, as a tech person, I found it difficult to believe but I gave it a try. Ordered two of the memory cards (one for me and the other for my friend). It took like 10days before arrival since it shipped from abroad.
When it finally arrived, the first red flag I noticed was the absence of Samsung logo on it unlike the one advertised in the pics.

I said let me give it a try, picked mine and gave my friend the other.

I copied some files (about 60gb) into mine, it took all without issues and played everything. I was so happy, hoping to store more files the following day..

When I met my friend the following day, he narrated his ordeal with the memory card and I was dumbfounded. He had copied just 30gb files and the memory card complained of memory full. In his mind, I will manage it, after all 30gb for 3k is not too bad. The worst happened when he tried to play some videos, nothing played. Some music played while some refused.

When I got home, I picked mine, inserted it into my home theatre, no music played, I inserted back to the laptop, all files corrupted. I formated it, copied files again, got to 45gb and alerted memory full.

I just jejely called jumia to come and pick their property.
When the jumia agent came, I told him item not as described. I showed him the pictures of the one I ordered, showing Samsung logo and the one I received with no Samsung logo. I also let him know that the capacity is not up to what was advertised.

He collected them, asked for the invoice, (invoice wey I don throw way), I told him I can't find invoice. He said I should not worry that they will prepare another one for me.

Few days later, my money was returned to me.

Purchase protection expired yesterday on my Aliexpress order made on 16th May & shipped on 18th May via Aliexpress Standard Shipping (Singapore Post)

Today, I opened dispute, uploaded screenshots of the tracking details which was last updated on June 23rd as "Dispatched to Destination Country" and requested for a full refund of USD $32.85 but Aliexpress decided the dispute against me.

USD $32.85 is a lot of money to lose at this point in time.

Pls, how can I win this dispute?

Note : Orders I made after this particular one and were shipped via AE standard shipping (Singapore Post) have all arrived Nigeria and have been picked up by me last month.

I genuinely believe this one has been lost in transit and will never come.

Wait five days after purchase protection has ended to open dispute. If you open it immediately after it has finished, you will automatically get an invalid reply.

Lol that's usually the symptom. Files will copy sure but many of them will be corrupted or won't play. Even 1tb micro sd cards are very expensive, I have not even seen 2tb in that form factor. Talk more of 6 dollars for 2tb. I'm just trying to help him before his purchase protection passes on aliexpress, but seems he's more "knowledgeable". Infact the only way to deal with these scams on aliexpress is to buy the fake 2tb on purpose, run the test, report and get full refund at least even if it's 20gb you got it for free lol. Although most times it's low quality and I won't advice someone to store sensitive files on it

This does not affect goods, therefore it does not mean AE items will arrive faster than it has poorly been of recent. Cargo planes and vessels have always transited.
Hi. Thanks for sharing with us your tracking number. Please be informed that these items were despatched to Nigeria on 12/16 July. We wish to highlight that International shipments are substantially delayed due to global border closures. Kindly check with your local Post Office for the status and delivery of this item.

COVID-19 has severely impacted the international movement of people and goods as countries implement additional border controls and restrictions on international travel. As a result, airlines have drastically reduced international services, leading to a significant reduction in air freight capacity and frequency to and from Singapore to all international destinations.

We seek your kind understanding to allow for a longer delivery time during this unprecedented period and we sincerely apologise for the delay and inconvenience caused.

From SingPost AES

You're quoting GSMarena, but I am talking from first hand experience.

I received 3 Redmi note 8 and one Redmi 8 Global ROM (Only the 4gb + 128gb variant is Global version) ordered on June 17 in my local post office in ENUGU today.

I have tested all of them and the support MTN and Airtel 4g LTE.
Bought this exact same phone about 2 days earlier than when you ordered yours and from the same seller and yet I have not received the item. I don't understand how this shipping works. Latest tracking info is on 21 July that it has been sent to ng los

I remember my experience last year on Aliexpress . I had stumbled on a 32gb otg flash drive that went for a ridiculous amount of 1k and decided to place order for it. The order arrived in about 2 weeks and I was happy. Plugged it into my lappy and copied some videos into it to play on my phone and everything looked fine. About 2 months latter, the unexpected happened. I tried to play videos on my phone as usual, but non played. Removing the drive and plugging it to my lappy again, I got the message that the flash would not work unless it's formatted. Trying to format it as instructed, I got an error message. The drive is lying useless at home now. Too much awuf dey tear pocket.

I am also interested in this but the reviews I read in various threads concerning the activities of many of these nairaland agents and logistics companies left me bewildered. Many start well with positive reviews then they suddenly become something else,their threads become toxic with all manner of complain and threats. I am at a loss now because I don't know who to trust now. Please let me know if you see a trustworthy agent.

I don't even give such offers a second look. In my heydays on AE, I had fallen for a summer sales offer of Bose Soundlink II for about 12k at a time it was officially selling for 65k. Item arrived and the weight of the package alone was the first red flag. Dude sent me a regular Bluetooth speaker with radio and SD card that was a poor imitation of the original Bose Sound link II which has nothing of such. That same day I made videos of the item and asked a friend who has the real stuff to send me pictures and videos of his own. Thank God globacom did not disappoint with their network. I uploaded the two videos and other pictures and got refunded sharp sharp. That same month I got the real stuff from an official seller on AE at a discount price of 45k.

That was my first ever refund on AE and I was glad at the news that I still got to keep the item, which I later gifted out anyways.

I later investigated the shop of that useless seller and found out it was newly opened for the purpose of that AE summer sales. It was closed a month after sales ended.

Same happened to a 64gb micro sd I bought. Funny thing I ran the test and it showed its real 64gb capacity but when I started transferring files to the micro sd many transferred with errors some video didn't play. My purchase protection had passed. I vowed not to buy a no named brand micro sd card again.
