I've only been shopping at Dino direct for a few months and was pondering my next purchase.
Today, I noticed that many competitive prices just disappeared and now DinoDirect is the most expensive vendor on the entire planet.
For example:
Sunwayman M10R is now $60.99?
Sunwayman V10R is now $84.99?
Sunwayman M10A is now $72.99?
Is it normal for prices to go up like that?
DD's like a drug dealer..get you hooked then jump the prices!! haha
finally i get off this addictive DD shopping!!
i mean .. i better spend the rest of my dinopoints on something cheap as a final bye-bye purchase!
Some examples more:
Nitecore EZ AA R5 from 39.39$ to 52.69$
Fenix E21 from 28.nn$ to 47,99$!!!!!!
Itp A3 SS from 30.39$ to 40.39$
JetBeam BA20 from 30.69 to 32.69$
Tank E09 from 11.69 to 12.99
Klarus P1A from 28,nn to the 32,nn
Klarus P2A from 29 to 32$
And many more!!!
that's what I did..got a charger couple batts and used up my points and my one coupon I had..i'll return to DD when they deal again..
Just wait a couple days/weeks, they'll have another sale, CNY is fast approaching and then there's Valentine's, and I'm sure they'll find other reasons for making a sale.
Wow prices are going up by the minute...Price on the P1A is 36.39USD now...
Maybe they're punishing BLF for the DD bashing thread... 
No, they are not growing by minute. Maybe it was just my error, I wrote 32 instead of 36
:D
( or for us abusing their crazy sales, coupons, giftcards and dinopoints )
Yeah WTF? The Romisen RC-29 was $13.99 earlier today, now its $18.69

The friggin DD "regular price" was like $46, when it was on sale for $13.99, making it like 70 % off, WHAT A DEAL!!!! Now that the "sale" is over, we can see that it has gone back to its regular price of $18.69. Making it really only 25% off at the sale price of $13.99
WTF I just hope I get my UF-H3 without a hitch so I don't have to deal with these guys any more.
At the crazy sales time (Christmas), prices started low, already cheaper than the competition (e.g. HKE). I dont think the low starts will come back on Valentine's. just these here:
ImageShack - Best place for all of your image hosting and image sharing needs
ImageShack - Best place for all of your image hosting and image sharing needs
with the regular HIGH prices.
for tnxgiving day Xmas was promote a wholestore prices down
actually that was the last
china timee is UTC +8
so is alredy 01/11/2012 there
dinodirect sales ended and them will restore old high prices :(
i remember the time when i got interested in flashlights (Never owned one before, seriously.). i stumbled upon cpf, blf, the dealer's experiences thread, found out about dealers like HKE (ebay!!), then DX. At that time i also had glance at the product offerings and pricing on other sites: KD, Manafont, and DD.
i was shocked about DD. How could a place sell the items so expensive? Why was there such a long thread on blf, with their high prices? i laughed about DD and turned by back.
Yep, in general DD is *not* the cheapest place for us. I guess most of the year, it isnt.
Wow I just checked the P1A again...its 59.23USD now!!!!
LOL, not serious.
I ordered a Fenix E21 a week ago for $28. Glad I beat the deadline before it went up to $48!
You can get it on Amazon for like $30 shipped anyday
I guess DD doesn’t want any business anymore.
LOL really????
I thought that those prices at DD were just artificially inflated, I didnt know they would go to those prices one day, hahah.
48$ for an E21 is way too much. You can buy it direct from Fenix for 10$ less, LOL.
Brothers, you guys new to the buying scene? Just wait for another activity.... Read the history, there have been sales for so many times, you just wait. If you can't wait and want service then get from Ebay or others. But when prices really go down again then it will not be nice to create another thread saying that DD is playing with us. LOL!
I must have saved close to 150 bucks. Just V60C and M3X alone is $90 savings in a month. There were a few GBs too. Not shilling for DD, but just my purchases backed up with receipts etc....
Price fluctuation at Dino is like nothing I've seen before, actually their entire business model is very weird. Somehow they love confusing their costumers whenever they can!
Would anyone know of the lowest price the P1C has ever got to?
I have have had one on order for $29.99 (-5.00 off coupon) but it's been pending for almost 2 weeks and still has not shipped. All my other orders went out within 3 business days or so.
