Time for a new device

I've split the old CB-3000 again, Mrs. Twisted says get a new cage. Are there any particular sellers on dhgate that are to be recommended...or avoided?

I can check my purchase history, although it has been 2 years, and who knows how stable the Chinese sellers are, or their supply sources.

I bought a few of my early cages of EBay. Pretty much the same ones you find on AliExpress or dhgate but a lot of sellers are in the us so the shipping time is less. Amazon has a good selection, too.

DHGate no longer has my purchase history from over 2 years ago, so I can't tell you which specific stores. I do remember one named Helen, but I don't remember if that's where I bought the A272.

OK, thanks. No one is chiming in with any bad experiences (yet), so for the moment I suppose I can assume that I'm probably not going to get screwed right off the bat...though I could be wrong...

...it might be a bit anyway...my former small, local bank was bought out by a big bank a few years back, I wasn't real happy but it didn't cause me any grief...until now- Big Bank dumped the holdings, bought up by a smaller but still fairly big though somewhat local bank...now they want to charge me fees on my no interest checking account (pay them to let them use *my* money?), my newly purchased checks are no good and my debit card suddenly stopped working today...I'm not a happy camper, I'm going to have to go to one of the branches tomorrow and express my displeasure...and some of the things I am inclined to say might get me locked up in this age of fear...

I bought some knock off CBxxx's and Holy Trainers from an EBay seller named Chinesegirl-Helen. Easy to deal with and fast shipping from US warehouses. They are not showing anything for sale right now and say they are on vacation.

LOL. Do you remember how the charge appeared on your statement? Mrs. Twisted is paranoid about anything 'unusual' showing up. I told her it would probably say something like 'DHgate.com' with no specifics.

Naw, there was nothing odd.

OK, thanks. Since my debit card isn't working at the moment I'll need to put it on the CC...that *she* gets the statements for...

Have you thought about a custom device? I gather you're locked a lot, maybe worth the coin?
