Flipper Zero to SA?

saor said:
There's nothing to resolve. I'm just telling people to be careful. If you're not a scam, cool - then maybe post a picture of your flipperzero stock with your username and todays date written on a piece of paper so anyone considering it can get a bit more assurance you're legit.

Sorry - but you can't expect to post a website like that (EFT only payments, no contact details etc) in public and not have concerns raised in public.

I suppose these days one is considered criminal until proven innocent.
I was just concerned that no matter how much effort I go to to try and prove myself legit, there will always be people that don't read all the way down to the rest of the posts after seeing someone say "Beware the scam site..."

Nah - I think people seeing you willing to have a discussion about this does a lot more good. Thanks for posting the pics. I've edited that warning post with a link to your pics.

Awesome, thanx for that.
I will be getting in the dev boards and more.
Just need to get off the ground.
 
Good day
I've found a seller on marketplace (I know not the most reputable but hear me out). Seller states that he is based in Randfontein , says he does same day delivery (in JHB don't know about other areas) for R4000. This included the silcone case ,wifi dev board and you can get the exclusive black Kickstarter colourway. If someone has ordered from him before let me know if not, I'll arrange for an in person meeting to see how legit this is

Looks too cheap to be legit, in person meeting for sure.

I've lived in Randfontein for awhile, Never been to Claremont in Randfontein though.....
 
Here is a screenshot of the conversation I had with him this morning, it seems that he has a lot of stock I don't know how he came to obtain so many (that is if the videos are legit), it is an extended screenshot sorry for that I didn't want to upload multiple and confusing screenshots

His chat responses look very scammy, collect and pay cash, do not pay upfront.

He isn't saying. I'm assuming it's 3d printed shells since the STL files are available online. But I will report back on Saturday

Still only offering EFT, sketchy, buyer beware..
”Make your payment directly into our bank account. Please use your Order ID as the payment reference. Your order will not be shipped until the funds have cleared in our account.”
 
Screw this dodgy crap, I'm saving up to buy from Lab401. They've got some other nice toys too.

I've wanted a Hak5 Rubber Ducky, its out of stock, hopefully when I have the money, I can add it.

Yes and you said you would add alternative payment options and what do you know it was just lip service because the only option on your website is still just EFT which leaves buyers totally exposed to being ripped off.
Walk the talk and offer an option for card payments or gtfo.
