    I'm guessing it's not adjustable so I can't make it fit my s5?

      Fits my s8
      Is adjustable

      Mine arrived sans phone bracket. You?

      • Flyerone on 22/09/2017 - 23:34

        Mine came with the phone brackets inside the pack.

    • J4ckal on 23/09/2017 - 00:44

      Same

    • dufflover on 23/09/2017 - 13:00

      Same. Ok quality for the price and decent amount of the rubber grip. Dunno how it will go longevity wise but that's why I got two last deal.
      Doesn't feel like I'm risking my compact camera on it at all.

    Thanks for the deal OP.
    Just wandering how is this deal USD $0.33 cheaper?
    Last deal was USD$0.70.
    So it is only USD$0.15 cheaper?

    I can't think of any situation that I would need this!?

    • RimofLeo on 22/09/2017 - 23:01
      +3

      Long exposure at night. (You may wanna manually set low ISO for better image quality in which case the shutter speed has to be low. Without tripod the result would be blurry.)
      Or remote selfie.

      • kctt on 22/09/2017 - 23:09

        This does not apply to me :-p Give up on phone for night photo. Remote selfie needs bluetooth remote to control the phone?

        • RimofLeo on 22/09/2017 - 23:12
          +3

          Not necessarily. You can set a 5 sec or 10 sec shutter delay and I think that's enough in most cases.

          I feel this counts as a major issue with retailer. The deal was not honoured, when on paypal it says "You can review your order before you complete your purchase." it places the order automatically. I would imagine that would go against something in paypal's terms or it would not have such wording. There support links takes you to a page (https://support.gearbest.com/faq/index/index) that says "Whoops, looks like something went wrong."

          @SilentDissident:

          when on paypal it says "You can review your order before you complete your purchase."

          yeah that's bs. if you click on continue it will just proceed to pay for it. there's no review. I was jipped 3c because it used my paypal balance and converted to aud. I thought I could still change it on the next page.

    I'm starting to wonder how many people here would buy GearBest "Poop in a bag" for 1cent if it came out.

    • Quarn on 23/09/2017 - 00:47

      If the postage is free? Hell yeah, I'd buy that for a dollar!

      does it have band 28?

      • ShortyX on 23/09/2017 - 06:46

        I keep up to date with most jokes on OzB but missed this one. Can you fill me in on the band 28 joke?

        And is there an OzB jokes page?

        • lanjiao on 23/09/2017 - 07:35
          +1

          Phones from China such as the Xiaomi * do not have the wireless band 28. This is a common frequency(?) For 4G in Australia.

          Sorry about probably being off with the details, but it is pretty much memed now for anything bought from China

        • cashless on 23/09/2017 - 13:35

          And is there an OzB jokes page?

          You're on it

    • zmigo on 23/09/2017 - 01:57

      Id ship it to the addresses of people that i dont like :p

      • dfaktz on 23/09/2017 - 17:55

        Funny enough, I think there was a company that did this, they had to stop for obvious reasons, I think it was the same company that does the glitter bomb letters. If you've ever got one, you know what I mean when I say I'd rather the poop in a bag.

  • bigbargain on 23/09/2017 - 00:28

    Despite negative forum feedback around low priced items on GearBest, I ordered this in last deal and it never turned up. Someone persuade me we should be buying anything off these guys.

      Curiously, was the last deal for this 30 business days ago?

  • follow on 23/09/2017 - 01:40

    can this stand on bed or stomach?

    • buckster on 23/09/2017 - 14:16

      depends on how curved the stomach is

  • kbw on 23/09/2017 - 02:26

    For some reason, my order in the order status page says "Shipping method: Netherlands Post surface mail"

    Both my paypal and manually entered gearbest shipping address are my house (in Australia..)

    Anyone shed light on this? I submitted a ticket, they asked me to manually confirm the (correct) shipping info, which I did, and it still says Netherlands post.

    • dfaktz on 23/09/2017 - 02:48

      Well, I can't shed light on it but I too just noticed I have the same shipping listed on status page.
      If it helps, I can confirm I recieved the one for "Switzerland Post Unregistered" heh..

      Source: https://i.imgur.com/xZVXvHH.png

      This combined with every one of their "Contact Us" links on the order history (etc) going to a dead page I think warrants a rep from gearbest coming in to shed light on these things to make users feel safe(r) in the future.

    • dm01 on 23/09/2017 - 06:39

      All totally normal with these Chinese sellers. Indeed it'll come via Netherlands post. I've had this plenty of times before.

    • X3 on 23/09/2017 - 07:48

      Are u using a VPN and maybe chose Netherlands?

      • hogwarts on 23/09/2017 - 08:18

        Definitely not. Had this happen to me didn't even ship with them. It was ether China or Malaysian post. Tracking I remember was Malaysian post

        • X3 on 23/09/2017 - 18:57

          Funny, cos I had my VPN in Netherlands and my GB account was shipping with NL Post, thought it was all my fault.

    Got mine (ordered 2) last week, quality is amazing for the price but of course nowhere near a Joby brand. Overall quality is just average but no cracks or really loose joints. Very handy accesory. At $4 it's a decent deal, at $0.70 it's a no brainer.
