How much did you save by not buying directly from Simon’s Convoy store from Aliexpress?
How much are they on Simons store?
That is exactly what I was about to ask too.
Beside that Gearbest do accept Paypal (not that Alipay isn’t safe), I don’t know what kind of benefit one can get by not buying from Simon directly.
This is Simon’s store on Aliexpress, you can compare the prices with Gearbest for yourself.
I would not have bought a c8 from simon as I am not particularly keen on the c8. It was on offer that’s all so I picked it up.
It’s not the point anyway, the point is it came from Gearbest and is not what it should be.
Pics or it didn’t happen 
Love to but how?

This was taken from the fake s2 thread, it is the exact same driver and spring I have on mine.

If i were you, i would file a paypal claim, because it is not the product you ordered.
This is the only way to teach “them”, we won’t let us trick that easy!
"Convoy" C8
My sample has the weak spring , cool tint , and worst of all , the clicky is recessed too far . I can't use my thumb to actuate it .

I use Imgur. No need for an account, and uploads are easy…
Ok then, take some pictures as evidence and do what you need to do (with Gearbest/Paypal). 
But you knew that was likely, didn’t you?
If the idea is to keep buying stuff that’s probably bad for the fun of complaining about it, well, good for you, somebody ought to be patrolling to control China and it sure ain’t me ….
Can you do anything about their national boundaries problem? Seems Chinese kilometers have the same issue as Chinese lumens, they’re bigger than anybody else’s ….
Same here.

Thank you to all regarding how to post pics. Most appreciated.
I have opened a ticket and will polish the PayPal hammer.
One other thing I noticed the convoy logo is upside down. I know people will say ‘duh turn the torch around’. But I have noticed all convoys are printed lens facing left, this is not. And the logo is a little too big for the space provided.
Hank, if I new I would get a fake I would not have ordered one, of course.
Marc.
The other fake Convoys sold by GB were not a clear sign, were they? Please let us know how this resolves please.
Hmmm…have three Convoy C8 (4c)on it’s way from Gearbest.com, also three red C2+ (+ the two I have at home now) will check if they look like the picture in this thread.
No they were a clear sign, but mine was on it’s way from China when we found out.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, isn’t it?
Hey op, how much did you pay for that fake? I will refund you the whole amount but please delete this thread ( wink2x)
