I haven’t purchased from Gearbest in a while and heard that they were hacked into and shouldn’t be used now. Have any of you had any issues with them? I’m tempted to purchase some of the new Ganzos.
Sometimes you can stumble upon some really crazy deals on GB what you can’t find elsewhere. For example when the Sanrenmu Land 9103 or the 910+ were on sale for ~$12 shipped I couldn’t resist and I ordered a couple of them as back up.
Pricearchive could be misleading because it doesn’t calculate with coupons (store coupons, Aliexpress coupons, select coupons etc.).
For example the Ganzo FH21 costs $26 with the $3 off store coupon at the moment and Pricearchive can’t show that either.
This is sometimes the case. Regardless of sale prices, it is always worth checking the different sites. Ali Express, GB, etc. can fluctuate with or without special sales. Between them, Amazon, and other sites; there can be a $10 difference on stuff in the $20-30 range. Shipping times and other factors are worth considering.
For instance, I just bought a bunch of the Harnds Lark to give out as cheap Christmas Gifts. The 11.11 sale on Ali Express put them down around $8. The regular price at GB was a few dollars less but my recent GB purchases have taken a lot longer to ship, and some have lingered only to get canceled. I’ve also had better luck with customer service over on Ali Express.
Price tracker should not track the price with a coupon. A coupon is a thing that may or may not be. Pricearchive tracks the price of an item and does it perfectly. If you have a coupon, this does not mean that someone else has it either. Coupons is not the thing that should be reflected on the chart.
