Save on purchase

What is CASHBACK and what it is eaten with

Cashback(from the English. cashback) - the ability to return some of the money spent on the purchase. The return is "live" money.

A brief sequence of actions:
1. We register on the selected cashback service.
2. From the cashback service website, go to the store where you plan to make a purchase.
3. Make a purchase.
Cashback is charged after confirmation of receipt of purchase. Terms of withdrawal cashback each service has its own.
If you intend to use more than one cashback service (not at the same time, of course, but in general), then it is not recommended to install browser extensions from any cashback services.
Using cashback and various coupons does not depend on each other and does not exclude each other. You can simultaneously use both cashback and coupons.

Just in case, I remind you that the publication of referral links to cashback services is prohibited in both posts and in the online table.

Important!On AliExpress, cashback is not charged when buying from MALL category sellers, provided that the seller is registered in Russia. In all other cases, including when sending goods from Russia, cashback is charged.

We save on exchange rates

When making purchases on foreign websites, it should be borne in mind that when choosing a price display in rubles on a website, the conversion rate is often not very profitable. In most cases, the purchase can be paid in US dollars even if you have a card in your national currency (the issuing bank performs the conversion in this case). Therefore, before buying, it makes sense to check the price in your national currency, in US dollars, calculate the conversion rate and compare it with the conversion rate of your bank (as a rule, it is indicated on the bank's website).
AliExpress:Horse rate, compare conversion rate with your bank;
Banggood:Often the exchange rate in Russian rubles is quite profitable;
Gearbest:often a horse course, but sometimes it is quite acceptable and even profitable;
Lightinthebox:probably the most exorbitant rate, + 13-15% to the official, payment in dollars with the conversion of your bank is certainly significantly more profitable;
PayPal:horse exchange rate, it is strongly recommended to select bank conversion in settings (Settings =>Payments =>Payment Management =>Set available funding sources =>Conversion options =>Please invoice me in the currency indicated in the seller’s invoice). Accordingly, the seller’s price should be in US dollars.
Yandex money:Horse Course is not recommended.

Bank Loyalty Cards

Accrued 5% of the purchase price on AliExpress. Accruals are made in points that can be spent on purchases on AliExpress. Conversion into "live" money is impossible.

Debit cardTinkoff AliExpress
Accrued 2% of the purchase price on AliExpress. Accruals are made in points that can be spent on purchases on AliExpress. Conversion into "live" money is impossible.

Rules of the loyalty program "AliExpress - Tinkoff Bank"

According to reviews of several members of the forum, these cards are successfully combined with the use of cashback services, despite the fact that some cashback services write that in the case of using such cards, the cashback may not be accrued.
No one gives you any guarantees, you make a decision on your own, realizing that there is some risk not to get a cashback using these bank cards.

Certificates AliExpress

In the current situation, when cashback is not charged for the purchase of certificates, the practical use of certificates may be that if you return the goods or cancel the payment, you will receive a refund in dollars to your certificate balance, from which you can pay for other goods on AliExpress. You do not lose money on the reverse conversion into your national currency.
Example: paid goods worth $ 100, paying with a ruble bank card. Money is written off in rubles at the rate of sale of currency by your bank, for example, at 60 rubles per dollar. When returning money to a card, the bank again converts them from dollars to rubles, but at the purchase rate, let us assume, at 58 rubles per dollar. As a result, it turns out that you paid 6000 rubles, 5800 rubles returned back. 200 rubles lost on double conversion.

Before you buy and use AliExpress certificates, be sure to read the terms and conditions for their use so that there are no unnecessary questions or misunderstandings.

The official text of the rules and conditions for the use of gift certificates

1. These Terms and Conditions and Terms of Use of AliExpress Gift Certificates ("Rules") apply to gift certificates and their balance ("Gift Certificate Balance") provided to registered AliExpress users on the relevant website (www.aliexpress.com) for shopping . AliExpress gift vouchers may be subject to additional rules regarding AliExpress vouchers, or indicated in the section "My Gift Vouchers" on AliExpress. By purchasing a certificate, you enter into an agreement with Alibaba.com Singapore E-Commerce Private Limited under these rules.
2. AliExpress gift certificates can be purchased in the following denominations:
a. US $ 10;
b. US $ 20;
c. US $ 50;
d. US $ 100;
e. US $ 150.
3. AliExpress Gift Certificates are valid for three (3) years after purchase.
4. AliExpress gift certificates can only be used for shopping on AliExpress. To pay for a purchase on AliExpress using a gift certificate, you must select "Gift Certificates" as the payment method when placing the order, and the order value will be calculated from your gift certificate balance. If the value of your order exceeds the amount remaining on the balance of your gift certificate, you can choose other payment methods to pay for the missing part of the order value.
5. AliExpress Gift Certificate can not be used to pay for additional services on Alibaba.com or AliExpress, pay for purchases offline or purchases on other sites.
6. AliExpress gift certificates can be summed up with promotions, sales, discounts. With certificates, you can make purchases from different vendors.
7. Buyers can receive a refund when canceling an order made using gift certificates, according to the terms and conditions of the dispute opening on AliExpress. If the buyer receives a refund, the funds are returned to the balance of gift certificates.
8. By purchasing a certificate, you agree to the terms and conditions for the use of gift certificates, the payment services agreement on Alibaba.com and the terms of use. The above terms and conditions apply to your payments from the balance of gift certificates and other transactions conducted using AliExpress gift certificates. AliExpress reserves the right to cancel any order contrary to the above terms and conditions.
9. AliExpress Gift Certificates cannot be exchanged for cash in any way.
10. In the event of a dispute, Alibaba.com's decisions are final and are made based on user interests.
11. Alibaba.com reserves the right to change these rules at any time by posting a new version of the rules on AliExpress.com. In this case, the updated version of the rules takes effect immediately after publication. By continuing to use gift certificates after the publication of the updated rules, you agree to the updates made.
12. Alibaba.com reserves the right to temporarily or permanently change, modify, limit, suspend or terminate the provision of gift certificates, as well as the corresponding functions and services, at any time unilaterally.
13. THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, unintentionally OR OTHER DAMAGES, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, LOSS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, OR LOSS OF DATA THAT MAY ARISE IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES .
14. These rules are created in accordance with the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. If any discrepancies are identified, the English version of these rules takes precedence.

Important! The term "gift certificate" in the Russian version of AliExpress is not translated correctly, it is correctly called the AliExpress Pocket. Keep in mind this nuance when mentioning gift certificates in communication with the seller, because when he sees "gift certificate" in your message, he will not understand what is being said.

Nuances when buying a laptop

When buying a laptop Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air buyer may face some points that are quite obvious to one person and can cause difficulties for another. Everything is solved, but it should be borne in mind:
1.When buying a laptop in China, the seller gives a guarantee, but when the warranty case occurs, the laptop must be sent to China, as a rule, at the expense of the buyer. The approximate cost of shipping from Russia to China via EMS is 2850 r.
2.The laptop is released for sale in China, so Windows 10 is Chinese. This is not a serious problem, there are at least two solutions: a) a cardinal way is to buy a license (the Pro version can be bought for $ 4– $ 8 on eBay); b)hereandhere- Two detailed instructions for reinstalling Chinese Windows 10 to any other with the preservation of the license Windows 10 Home.Discussion of activation issues - in the topics on the respective laptops, in this topic - only the purchase and accessories!
3.The charger has a Type A American-Chinese standard plug. It’s not a fact that the seller puts an adapter in the box with the laptop. And if it does, it is unlikely that it will be of high quality. Therefore, I recommend in advance to take care of a quality adapter or surge protector having an appropriate outlet.
4.Lack of full warranty. All issues related to warranty service, will have to be addressed solely with the seller. Sending a defective laptop back to the seller may be at the buyer's expense (such conditions on AliExpress, for example). Official authorized Xiaomi service centers in Russia (there are already more than 100 of them) deal only with smartphones and accessories purchased from official sellers (of course, at double prices).
5.The lack of spare parts for sale. The only thing that at the moment was able to find - the LCD matrix. But without glass. And SSDs are sold freely.

• Customs legislation

  When sending the parcel, the seller may ask what amount to indicate in the declaration. There is no single answer. You should consider the customs legislation of your country and the volume of your purchases.

  For Russia, you can specify the full cost of the laptop in the event that it is the only laptop in the order and there was not (and is not planned for a month) other expensive purchases. If the seller specifies a lower price and at customs it will be revealed, you, as a buyer, will not be in danger, but you will have to come to the territorial department of customs with evidence of the actual purchase price (screenshot of the lot, order, bank statement, etc. .).

• Keyboard Engraving

  Initially, the keyboard only letters of the Latin alphabet. Apply the national alphabet in two ways: buy stickers or engrave the keyboard. The best quality is achieved when engraving using a solid-state green laser.

  Verified firms

  "Verified" - not a synonym for "quality." Here are links to those companies in which the forum users have already done engraving. The fact that one person liked the result does not mean that you will like it too: there is an assumption that in different batches of laptops the paint on the keys is applied in a different layer (and, possibly, different in composition), so even in the same place the result may be different! Well, subjective perception also has a place to be.
  All addresses and phone numbers are listed for information, without any guarantees that in your case the result will be the same, and, of course, without recommendations, contact the specified companies.

Reason for editing: engraving in Perm

[Vitee_Ok]

The younger model is so-so, but the older one is very interesting in terms of price / quality / performance ratio.

Posted on 07/27/2016 at 15:03:

I hope it will be possible to order it for 50-55k

[Toomhonor]

And how do you plan to solve the issue of the absence of Russian letters on the keyboard?

[Vitee_Ok]

Toomhonor
Engraving or blind printing method;)

Posted on 07/27/2016 at 15:17:

I think that it will be possible to buy in all kinds of internal online stores a la TaoBao at a reasonable price.

I think if the book is popular, then it will probably make separate stickers for it

Does the version with m3 percent have passive cooling or not?

On gikbaing older version of the laptop costs 909 bucks o.O

Nuke142 @ 07.27.2016, 11:52

The weight of the gadget was only 1.28 kg (not a record, but a pretty good result).

Of course, not a record, a record for LG, where the Chinese are to brands

Here is a Russian vidos with tests for strength -CLAC
Here is a gallery with real photos -CLAC

Those who say that the LG Gram is better, you look at the design ...

I will post the Russian presentation tomorrow.

More advertising, not a single test is close to reality to the conditions of the Moscow or St. Petersburg metro did not see
Even when mi5 ceramic was tested at least it looked like reality

Pavel518 @ 07.27.2016, 08:59

Guys, in Mi note metal case

Judging by the weight, this is not steel like in mi4, it will be interesting to scratch just once or twice as redmi note 3?

What kind of design? I do not see him

I mean the fact that they are fully on the same procedure, if the dimensions are not lying around? These are different categories of beeches. Therefore, only the progenitor of the ultrabooks from the apple is a competitor’s book

yeah, both Air can't catch up with the ULTRAbook LG Gram.

Hello. Are there owners of devices similar in filling (Senior model from Xiaomi)? I would like to evaluate the potential performance of this unit. Actually, the following cycle of use is of interest: surf, movies / series in fullhd (possibly on an external monitor), work in android / visual studios (how responsive the interface is, etc.), some toys are not very demanding. And, of course, how much battery power is enough for such use (except toys, perhaps).

Just do not forget that the lg gram has no battery and there are no orders.

Lenovo has less RAM, but the video card is not expanded with 1Gb
+ finger scanner

If xiaomi had not presented their laptop, no one would have known about this miscarriage from lenovo.

[Vitee_Ok]

kara puz @ 07/27/16, 11:28 PM

it is not clear than this Chinese trash is better than the LG Gram which for a long time already for $ 770 can buy any on Amazon p

Yeah, with a smaller volume of ssd, a plastic case, no discrete video card and a dull battery. But there is an LH badge, now it is a super brand (no).

940MX in the Chinese - there are no tests about this test on the Internet

There is, it is gt 940m but with gddr5 memory. Performance level 750m or 850m with ddr4

[ItsCore]

Has anyone pre-ordered gikbaing? How's the reviews? I would like to order a younger version.

[WOLVERINE90]

HellGerhard @ 07/27/2016, 18:34

And this is absolutely not an argument, I had 8gb ozu on a laptop 5.5 years ago, and I can say that for WORK with 2core is optimal - 16Gb ozu,
with 4- core 24-32Gb, with desktop i7 - 32-64gb, with 6 core - 64Gb, with 8-10 core - 128Gb RAM
p.s. And the pages can be looked through and the code can be pee on 4-8gb

and who do you work with?

[kara puz]

Nuke142 @ 07.27.2016, 21:39

So there is no dedicated video card in Gram?

No, but it’s hard for me to imagine a person buying such an easy laptop with a 13 "touch screen to actually play 3 hours, and then 4 hours to charge it so that again it’s enough to play for 3 hours. Well, maybe a couple of such maniacs are there, but the main the purpose of ultrabooks is not a game, but the difference in weight of 300gr is the weight of two smartphones

Vitee_Ok @ 07.28.2016, 07:23

with less ssd, no discrete graphics card and a dull battery

miracles do not happen and discrete vidyukha will spend the battery faster thus equalizes the time

and then, the track has both 14 "and 15" variants with i7 and 256GB SSD

Vitee_Ok @ 07.28.2016, 07:23

plastic housing

The case that lg gram, that xiaomi air is the same, see how the cover with the screen bends in the tests. what is it like not your plastic? magnesium allow chassis for gram allowance
