Bulk Nillkin Wireless Charger 2nd round, anyone? 20 pieces, 17.72USD per piece.
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Original-NI...1506917163.html

I will ask for additional RM25 for handling charge. Total price will be RM85.

T&C:
I will open the packaging and test the product personally first to make sure every of them is working, but please treat it as no warranty. I will probably take 2 units myself, so these 2 units will act as replacements for any faulty units, so you can get a working unit. Save you the hassle to deal with the seller, I will deal on my own.
Waiting time is probably less than 2 weeks (seller offers Fedex to me). COD area Sunway, Puchong, Seremban (to be arranged), else postage via courier services. I see other sellers at Garage Sales selling it for RM130. Individual unit pricing goes around 23USD for free slow shipping.

I need 10-15 units to confirm my order. Expect to make order within next few days.

Anyone interested?

I am just being cautious as I am very afraid we'll get faulty units (China products after all). So I am asking a bit more to cover up in case the seller does not want to entertain me for any sort of refund. I hope you can understand.

Additional info:
I am asking a bit more for handling charge because I want to minimise my risk for this bulk. We are buying China products after all and it will be troublesome if seller is reluctant to refund for faulty units.

Discount RM5 if you take two (one for your office, one for your home!)

IMPORTANT:
I expect no tax/import duty (no relevant entry for phone charger in the custom database). However, in the event if we were taxed, the incurred amount will be born by you. I will go to custom to clear the item though, no extra charge for this.



I need attention of yewfattsuper_evil_aliencybpsych to fill in the form.

I can give you RM5 discount, because I am not sure if it's still normal rate if I ship both in one parcel (I expect them to be, though).

Screen protector doesn't protect from drop test, what does mere .1mm of plastic sheet going to do upon drop? People used it to protect from scratch not drop.

It does. The film stretches the whole screen and minimise the impact by spreading the energy as widely as possible. Certainly, cheap one may not be doing that job really well but I believe any better one should have that covered somehow. Premium one like Rhinoshield tell you that's what they can do!

Interesting, now I feel like I need to replace my screen protector laugh.gif Is the nillkin glass screen protector as good as rhino shield? I see they only got for nexus 4, seems like they havent make for nexus 5 yet  hmm.gif
*
They do. It will cost you a 25USD + shipping though.
http://shopify.evolutivelabs.com/products/rhino-shield-phone

One thing that held me back is its anti-scratch-ness. I see some scratch marks in some of their videos (or maybe that's just some lighting issue). Sure, polymer-based SP will not be as anti-scratch as the tempered glass one, but if a SP scratches so easily and cost me 25USD to replace, it will be very painful!

They used to cost 20GBP, so now it's cheaper!

scratch proof vs crack proof, I'm voting for crack proof anyday thumbup.gif

scratch is $25 to replace, crack is >rm200+ to fix cool2.gif

didn't know such sp existed, might get this when I get my n5
*
But scratch may occur easily? Like once you meet some metal objects, polymer-based SP will scratch. But cracked screen has other ways to prevent - casing or more careful handling.

Some extra info by users in XDA:
QUOTE
2. Scratch resistance is like normal screen protectors, i.e. not particularly great, and not too bad either. They said it is a necessary trade-off for the impact protection it provides, and it holds some truth.

Hey guys, I got in touch with the seller for my bulk order of Nillkin Magic Disk Wireless Charger to clarify on refund issue and he said he can honour refund for faulty units. With that, I think I can reduce my price to RM80 now. This is already the cheapest price (by some margin) to get a branded wireless charger that outputs 1A.

To register your ROI, fill in the form below. More info is there as well.
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Npth0ZWVuj...sxovqo/viewform
I need a few more to start this bulk. The seller's price is not fixed and he said will lapse in a few days.

The Nillkin Charger info:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Original-NI...1506917163.html

New price will be applicable to those who have signed up before this.

At least G Flex does flex, but Galaxy Round is really a huge gimmick.
For the price of G Flex, I will get a Nexus 5 + Nexus 7 though.

I apologise for those who are not interested but must read my spam. If you are not interested in wireless charger, just ignore this post.

I have had 12 orders now, need 3 more then the deal is on. Remaining unit is still up for grab of course. ROI with the form in my signature.

I actually search a while for wireless charger back when I decided for Nexus 5. Nillkin (depending if you think it's branded or not) is the cheapest branded wireless charger, also the cheapest that outputs 1A. There are some 15USD wireless chargers on Aliexpress (they have better price compared to ebay) that has no name and don't output 1A. Personally I think this Magic Disk looks good, and it's small.

I have not used a wireless charger before so I can't comment on its heat, but even normal charging will emit heat. Generally I am not too concerned because when you charge in office, or charge overnight, your phone is likely in an air-conditioned environment.

Hey guys, I have new deal now. It is the mighty RhinoShield screen protector. It has damping layer in the SP to make sure your screen will not shatter even if you drop it (at least that's how they market themselves). See below for more video.

T&C for this groupbuy:
QUOTE
This is just for Nexus 5. Price is RM77. Official price for one piece is 25USD and an additional 5USD for shipping (that adds up to about RM100).
This round, I am not making any money, but just try to get a best deal for everyone. So I can't give you better price if you take more than 1, but you do get to save postage from me though.

Their shipping will take around 2 weeks after order, give me about 1 week to turnover, but I'll try to make it before CNY so everyone can show off dropping their phones to relatives. tongue.gif

I very much prefer postage since it's a screen protector, but if you insist on COD, location is Sunway, Puchong, Seremban. I'll use Poslaju, WM rate is RM6, EM rate? (please enligthen me)

I have 9 pieces available, first come first serve basis, based on the ROI form follow. Once quota is met, I will inform to send payment.

When the bulk starts, I'll collect deposit, and then make order. Hopefully in the next week these will be done. For shipping, tt will take about 10 business days. When I got it, give me some time to post/distribute it. It should take about 3 weeks if the bulk starts in the next few days. Hopefully we can get before CNY.

Hi guys, due to unforeseen circumstances (FFK la), I now have 2 slots for the Nillkin Magic Disk Wireless Charger bulk. It's still at RM80. If not taken, I'll put up to Garage Sales to sell when the stock arrives. By then, the price won't be RM80 anymore.

Rhino Shield bulk has been successful and I will make order, hopefully (depending on remaining people paying) by today.

A new world awaits.
