If you use Paypal, the payment will go through instantly rather than with a card, so possibly a better chance?

Sidenote... I already had an account with this site before (no idea what I bought then) but had to reset password... each time I entered the code after logging in, it would ask me to log in again.. then took me back to the basket (without the code).. entered the code again... back to logged out... log back in... enter code.. logged out... etc.
I made a new account. After a few choice curses.

Considering one of their terms is that if the item goes missing en-route (or arrives as an empty box) it's your problem not theirs - I don't think they 'have to' do anything.

26 Apr 171#65
Wronmg. Online shops usually have terms and conditions stating that acceptance of your order only happens at dispatch of goods, not payment - any e-mail sent before dispatch usually is an acknowledgement of your order receipt.
+ what was said before, you're buying from Chine, you have no rights unless you take them to court in China.......

26 Apr 17#66
Hahahahahaha

Likewise they have no rights if you issue a chargeback

26 Apr 17#68
This has 2.4ghz RC and 2.4ghz fpv WiFi. Range will be crap, interference huge, but it's a tenner. Plus it has a camera so legally you can't even use it in the garden (unless your neighbour is 30m+ away, in which case you're probably rich enough to get a proper quad)

Actually your wrong. if payment is taken for goods then that forms a legal contract with the seller to supply those goods. they can refuse the payment but once it's taken then the buyer has rights

Done that to me it's L8HW and not lH8W

Hahaha - you have to laugh at these amateur lawyers. This is coming from China what do you think their consumer laws are like? Even in the UK most sites now say there is no contract formed until the item is actually dispatched to you. So whether you've paid or not you won't be getting them.
I have heard that to save on delivery cost's these drones will be delivering themselves to your door, or roof or even your greenhouse.
