Ah yes but doesn't Aus pride itself on a work/life balance ethic?.
There's no way they'd take on any of China's slave policies.
UK on the other hand would/will likely adopt ANY bad policies from ANY country if it was a condition of a trade related deal.
Anywho. 2 of my Aliex orders just arrived no problem via RM.
1 of them cost me £3.68 and it was in a small parcel sized box.
It would cost me that just to post it in the uk?????!!!!!!.
Madness!

That's the traditional view, built during an era when the government's prime aim was full employment (not the fake-news "full employment" that governments talk about now), when unemployment rising to 2% was shocking headline news. People here now have the same work and financial pressures as the UK.
Best not to get me started on this subject Stick to machines and what to make with them

PS We do have better weather though and there are plenty of places to enjoy it on your day's off without queuing in traffic for 3 hours. Australia is still the best place on Earth for an English-speaking native in my view.An optimist says the glass is half full, a pessimist says the glass is half empty, an engineer says you're using the wrong sized glass.

Hey guys. Actually, I agree with cropwell. This situation works well for us. Btw, do they still charge for it? Actually, the last time I've ordered smth on AliExpress was last year, and I'm not aware of the current situation. Tbh, I used to order a lot of things from there. I'd say I even had a small business. I can't tell exactly what I was selling, but I had a nice income. I even used a free pay stub generator to track my income and expenses. Anyway, now it's my wife's business because I don't have enough time to run it. So, gentlemen, keep this topic updated.
