Hey lads so this is a story of a light that i bought a few months ago i made the order just before Chinese new year. I had seen a similar light around here a few years ago bought by a few members so figured i would buy one of these lights seeing as i am after a little thrower or some thing to mod. I was not expecting excellent quality! I was expecting a light i can actually use and mod. This light i can neither.
I got a piece of garbage!
I have not bought many lights as i can’t justify spending the money right now when i have so many lights and other bills to pay so this probably made me a little more angry as i was look forward to modding the light.
I will upload the photos i sent them (Brett store) and Aliexpress. Some people may not side with me because i am being some what picky in some situations in the pics but keep in mind the light was like 25 USD or 30 AUD. I take some blame for buying the light from an unknown seller but i expect better customer service from Aliexpress.
This is the store in question and the light in question.

The lens is way to small look at the gaps on the sides
So in the end i ended up getting back about $14 Aussie dollar roos from the almost $30 i paid. Aliexpress said to send the item back when i asked for shipping reimbursement i got nothing so no point of me sending the light back?
They just processed the partial refund stating not enough evidence? I will probably do a credit card charge back to get the rest of the money but that will likely see me banned from Aliexpress. Also i don’t have an option for use PayPal on Aliexpress seems to be a USA and Europe thing?
