Warning: That 50% off vacuum deal on TikTok was a total scam I fell for last Tuesday

Saw a Dyson knockoff for $34.99 and the shipping alone took two weeks longer than promised, plus the motor died after three uses so has anyone else had luck with refunds on those shady links?

Motor died after three uses? That is genuinely insane.

Read this whole thread on Reddit about a guy who tested those viral TikTok vacuum ads and he found most of them are just dropshipped junk from the same factory in China. The refund process is basically a nightmare too - you gotta email some random Gmail address and they just ghost you after a couple of messages. Heard of someone who did a chargeback through their bank and the seller fought it with fake tracking numbers showing delivery to the wrong address. Honestly, best bet might be to just dispute it with your credit card company right away and hope they side with you. Tbh I almost bought that same deal last week but my buddy warned me off after he lost $40 on a blender from the same setup.
