    how do you guys normally pay at gearbest.
    convert to AUD on the site, and pay AUD.
    or pay USD use paypal exchange rate?

    • sky blu on 02/01/2018 - 22:24
      +1

      1- Select USD currency prior to checkout
      2- Use a card with fee-free international and currency conversion (e.g. 28 Degrees, Coles Mastercard).

      You can use Paypal but don't use Paypal conversion.

        I'm with ING Direct and i've noticed recently that all of my recent foreign currency purchases through my Orange Visa debit haven't been getting charged any currency conversion fee. I suspect that ING might have dropped the currency conversion fee on accounts with deposit of $1000 or more per month. So it's good news for those with ING.

        • sky blu on 02/01/2018 - 22:32

          That is good news. I do have an Orange Everyday account.

        • hollykryten on 02/01/2018 - 22:34

          @sky blu:

          Yeah my ING Orange Everyday account gets over the $1000 deposit into it per month. I am suspecting that might be getting a perk of no foreign conversion fees now as well as that free ATM withdrawals. But nothing official is just what i've been noticing on my account lately that i made a ton of $USD and GBP purchases from overseas online stores and none of the purchased but hit with the conversion fee like it used to. Even though they show in the transaction history as purchases made from $USD and GBP.

        • sky blu on 02/01/2018 - 22:35

          @hollykryten: Why have you been using the OE card for overseas purchases knowing it has conversion fee?

        • hollykryten on 02/01/2018 - 22:36

          @sky blu:

          Because i don't have a 28 Degrees card or another credit card. Not every one can get it. You put on the credit card application form that you're currently unemployed and it's an immediate knock back.

        • sky blu on 02/01/2018 - 22:45

          @hollykryten: I see. In that case, have you ever heard of Citibank Plus (debit card).

          Read more here and do check out their website. You're welcome :)

        • hollykryten on 02/01/2018 - 22:47

          @sky blu:

          I've heard of it but never banked with Citibank. But for what it looks like for what i can tell that ING has dropped the conversion fee (on accounts with $1000+ deposit monthly) so i'll stick with them. No currency conversion fee is good. :)

          @hollykryten:

          ING Orange Everyday now has zero ATM fees worldwide and zero foreign currency conversion fees. This change occurred in November 2017.

          You don’t need a 28Degrees card or Citibank or anything similar.

        • Chewiebacca on 03/01/2018 - 00:36
          +1

          You would’ve gotten an email about it, they officially dropped the conversion fee and increased fee-free ATM withdrawals to worldwide (making it the ultimate travel due to using wholesale VISA rate without added fees) provided you make $1000+ deposits a month (I.e your regular card).

          It’s a really good setup with the savings rate too.

        • kmanccr on 03/01/2018 - 08:23

          Yes they advertise this. Also Macquarie Bank seem to also have some sort of international fee free thing going. Its becoming more mainstream as banks realise people buy stuff overseas and they want to lure in those customers.

        • hollykryten on 03/01/2018 - 12:03

          @Chewiebacca:

          Yeah i think i did get an email and forgot about it. hah it does happen.

          I don't think so

        • ash2000 on 03/01/2018 - 10:14

          They're not. 3% on all foreign transactions.

        • khell on 03/01/2018 - 11:13

    • PissLUR on 03/01/2018 - 01:11

      Select AUD$. PayPal will charge the amount in AUD$. No conversion.

      • ash2000 on 03/01/2018 - 10:16
        +2

        No visible conversion…..but they give you an exchange rate that is far far worse than any bank even with the 3% levied.

        It's always cheaper to let your bank do the conversion even without a fee free card. That said PayPal often defaults usd purchases into aud as it's so profitable for them.

      • AlanHB on 03/01/2018 - 17:22

        Yeah sorry mate - look at the conversion rate in PayPal when it offers to convert it. It's not great.

      Check out with USD next time. See my comment.

      • CacheHunter on 03/01/2018 - 06:54

        It's worth checking the Gearbest AUD price. For some reason, unlike all of the other Chinese stores, sometimes it's even better than the wholesale rate.

        • sky blu on 03/01/2018 - 08:18

          How's that possible?

        • CacheHunter on 03/01/2018 - 11:27

          @sky blu: on mobile is at the very bottom of the screen when you scroll down, choose USD or AUD to compare. I'm not on my desktop, but from memory, currency is somewhere near the top of the screen.

      I also opt for the same option but choose USD and use my ING OE conversion, I ended up with AU$24.54

      • sky blu on 02/01/2018 - 22:34

        I haven't received mine but looking at the Korjo one you linked, I have a strong belief the Xiaomi has better tech and material.

  • Diji1 on 02/01/2018 - 22:30

  • ChurchMouth on 02/01/2018 - 22:31

    Anyone own this umbrella , does it feel and look premium quality ?

    • ihfree on 02/01/2018 - 23:33

      I have one. Have used it once in light rain, water repellent coating seemed to work quite well. Automatic closing appears to work well.

      I would say that it feels 'premium', but that's in comparison to the umbrellas that I primarily use from this deal (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/197389). All three of them are still going strong.

      I ordered one of these on the 8th of Dec, notified it was shipped on the 10th and it arrived on the 20th with Australia Express.
      Tracking didn’t work.

      As for the umbrella it’s only been used once so far and works well, the only fault I would give it is that the handle plastic is slightly lower quality than you’d expect from Xiaomi but that’s trying to find faults.
