I got a new credit card and was trying to buy something from aliexpress,but the card got rejected.
They want 3 verification's to appeal;scan of drivers license or passport or birth certificate,scan of the card and bank statement.
Forget that,all prime candidates for id theft.
Then I tried using my usual card,that got rejected.
Oops, something went wrong there! Before attempting the purchase again, we recommend you to check your order history.
Cancelled again and tried the same card fresh,I got

Try a different vendor, it sounds like your being scammed.

Never never never send anyone your driver license, birth certificate or passport info, the same with any bank statement.
 
a friend bought one on aliexpress and his bank gave him grief.
he had to authorize it with the bank for it to go through.
The higher price at anmaxshop is probably the usb to rs232 adapter they throw in.
 
Good morning, dear friends, you can try to bind the credit card and ALIPAY, if not successful, you can contact ALIEXPRESS customer service. It's very simple, you can do it.

I am away from home right now and don't have the card on me to try this.
Maybe early next week.
 
I had to join alipay and link the card to that.

Your payment will be verified within 24 hours. Once it is verified, the seller will prepare your order for shipment. Otherwise, you will receive a notice in My AliExpress or by email.

It was still the same order,I just had to redo the payment.
The price has gone up but I should still be locked in @ $76
 
Actually got it the same day but killed it yesterday trying to load old firmware.
I went 4 days before popping the cover off which is good for me.
rs232 loader is useless since the receiver is in a boot loop and never looks at the com port.
I have a programmer for the flash but will try different things before actually desoldering the chip.
GD_S2+HD_k3_V1.1 20141223 on the mainboard which is interesting if you google it.
I ordered the openbox 1453 $55 free shipping from aliexpress.Same mainboard.
There is a lot of room around the flash so I am thinking sop-8 socket.

without a jtag for disaster recovery it is a necessity.
The old ali m3602 processor would keep the rs232 port working even if the flash was blank.
I used to kill my old openbox s10 on almost a daily basis and recover.
The new receivers use the spi 8 pin flash so worse comes to worse you can desolder with a hot air gun and program externally.
Some new receivers actually come with a usb to rs232 adapter for pc's that don't have a serial port.
