bought a fake mizutani super zlc.
it's a pretty good blade overall, but it came with the top ply a bit damaged.
I payed I think 26.99 for it.
So I asked for a refund and now aliexpress says they should return 18 USD to me.
Do you think the result is fair?

These are the pics I sent to aliexpress.

Is it playable for you?
Also would it be still okay if you reglue rubber 8-9 times ?
If yes, then whatever they are giving is good enough

yes it's still playable and I'm considering using it as my main blade lol.
I just don't want to feel like I'm stealing money from this chinese shop :)

Ah, don't worry about that. They must have taken more money from many others.
Anyway, I watched your video, and can say that our level is similar. Maybe you are better, but if you are using this blade as main, I am definitely interested.
Why don't you post more pictures of the handle and composition of blade

it's still perfectly usable even with that defect, that's why I was hesitating whether to make a claim at all...

The irony behind buying fake blades, but having a conscious over ripping off the Chinese store is rather amusing.

This is my take on it.....

If you bought a new one for £250 - You wouldn't accept any "discount" for a defect - You'd want a brand new one with no defects.

As you paid a very small sum, I can assume you don't have an issue with buying fake blades (this train of thought has been discussed before), so yeah, I'd take the refund and not give it a second thought.

i don't see a real difference between selling this mizutani and selling say the new donic ovtcharov which is a copy of the viscaria or the tibhar unlimited cca which is a copy of the maze.
even the stiga carbonado has very big construction similarities with a viscaria.
there comes a point where everything is pretty much a copy of everything else, like music lol.
the only difference is donic has tons of money to invest in marketing while a small chinese factory has none.

as for me ripping the store off, it doesn't matter if I'm dealing with the devil himself, there's no reason to do something I don't think is right.

You're really into economics, huh?
You know that Donic is run just like Tamasu by a family. To be more specific by the Schreiner Family. If you want to play Robin Hood better get your focus right and aim for the real big Players, smartboy.... *Smdh*
