⏩ ALIEXPRESS ⏩ Black Friday SALE, Coupons & Flashlight Manufacturers List

Opening post links blacklisted by AdAway sources.

What are these strange links?
http://ali.pub/ and a letter/number combo lik 1ctnly
Why not the normal Ali links?

You might wanna include Sofirn to this list. I don’t know this for certain, but I believe they are manufacturing a few of quality Budget lights, under different Chinese names.



It's links shortener. Allows to view statistics

Change it to Google shortener ( goo.gl )

Why use it at all?

Sorry, it's not the link shortener's fault, but its redirection to the http://s.click.aliexpress.com/ ad host. Thanks anyway, the store numbers can be spotted in the redirective url mess.

please explain why you “links for stats” act and look strange

for example, Convoy store, this is the link:
https://convoy.aliexpress.com/store/330416?spm=2114.12010608.0.0.3ETPbK
We can ignore and remove the part after the ? leaving
https://convoy.aliexpress.com/store/330416

Yet your goo.gle link is:

changd https into XXXXX

It looks like you want US to provide you with shops that can be nice for BLFers and then make commission from sales while eople use this topic.
Combined with an innocent looking question for feedback on the shops it looks like a friendly shop overview benefitting us, while the strange links and looooong things actually inside it suggest it mostly benefits you.
I have no problem with people having deal posts and posting aff links, however those are done by themselves, if somebody would ask for deals to be posted, comments on shops and then uses this crowd-generated-content and friendly suggestion it gives for gain it just goes a tad too far imho.
So can you just add a non aff link (non commission) to each shop? clearly marked as such. no link shortener, just the basic link so it is very clear it is not a commercial link.
People can then still use your commercial links if they want to but it would change the topic into what you are trying to suggest it is :wink:

The Miller, thanks for the explanation, I am very clear the intentions of the seller Fin17…

4/5 of his threads he makes money off.
Yup mate, thanks for helping us.
Did you just join BLF this year to make money?

The Miller, you are right! I added non-affiliate links.


Trevi_lux, Box, this section of the forum is called "BLF User Negotiated Deals".
I sincerely ask for your tolerance...

Thanks, now it is also a nice service and if I find a good shop I will post it.

Ah Elfeland

lots bought the S70s there and good prices

Thanks for answering my question

Elfeland also has Convoy products now.

I’m also cruious about this…

Some of those stores offer BLF discounts. It would be good to include them in the table.

I bought 2 Manker E11 from this store in AliExpress. I believe it is Manker store there!
Fast shipping and products are tracked, being good (branded) quality lights!
