Be Careful when Purchasing CMP 170HX on Alibaba!

Just a heads up. Shops in China are running like chickens without a head after the news the Falcon Exploit working to jailbreak some of the functions of these cards. Is not just happening on Alibaba but also Ebay. Usually from Chinese sellers.

I spent 2 days contacting lost of shops in China to get the cards, and all of the shops have been very cagy giving you prices because they were rushing to figure out the new value price for these cards.

Finally after talking to many sellers I reached an agreement with "Shenzhen Creative Technology Co., Limited" for a good price. I purchased two (2) cards, payment was submitted via the Alibaba platform (Always do that). Today, I texted the company inquiring shipping, well...They asked me to refund my purchase because they just realized that the prices of these cards skyrocketed, therefore the seller said they can no longer sell me the card at the agreed price. I ALREADY PAID the cards!. They said, the market is crazy now, and proceed to offer me to sell the card for the exact DOUBLE of what I already paid yesterday! LOL!!!!

I started a conversation with Alibaba Costumer Service to let them know of what "Shenzhen Creative Technology Co., Limited" is doing. I will just wait now and see if they come to their senses and ship my already paid cards. I will update the story as things evolve. Stay tune.

PS. I also purchased 2 cards on Ebay, the following day when the news exploded, the seller asked to do a refund because supposedly they found out the cards were overheating. I think it was a lie so they can re-sell them at a bigger margin. Be careful out there if you are trying to purchase these cards, sellers are going nuts at the moment
