Big Aliexpress sale coming up again!!

Thanks for sharing, 18sixfifty! I’ll keep my eye out for deals! :smiley:

thanks 18sixfity, can’t wait.
maybe we should make this thread the post the deal thread for this upcoming sale.

Thanks for the heads up. So far nothing there I care to vote for.

Thank you for heads up. I have never participated in this kind of sale before. How does his coupon code stuff work? Seems a little silly right now but... A buck is a buck :-D

Once you get enough points you cash it in for a coupon. Or if you catch them the day before the sale and during the sale (start of each hour) they will have some free coupons and some coupons for sale. Usually for a dollar. They will announce the deals sometime along the way but even then they are not close to telling you about all the deals that will be on sale that day.

The day before their sale starts they modify their search engine to include a drop down menu for sales only. So I type in flashlight (or whatever I’m looking for) and then hit the sales button. Then only the sellers who are participating in the sale show up on the search. I have gotten emitters price super cheap, lots of flashlights, fishing stuff and even a 50% off android gaming console. I even picked up a BTU shocker for $75 on one of these sales that was when they were still $150. Ric will probably have a couple lights on sale.

Also if people are looking for a cheap tablet this is probably the sale to get one.

I never bother voting for any of them. That part of the sale is like wallbuys Instant Kill thing. Only so many people get them at that price. But the ones who do get them get unreal cheap stuff. Pennies on the dollar. For me it’s about the 50% off stuff and that won’t be announced until later and most of the good 50% off stuff you will find using the search engine. Also some stuff will be for sale that day for 20 or 30 percent off too.

You’re welcome and hopefully you will find some good deals. One of the stores to check out is the Yupard store they usually have some really cheap lights. Not usually 50% off but good deals and then with the coupon some really hard to beat deals.

Can anyone explain me what the $ ratings means?

1.99$ piece?

It will be selling at $1.99 on 19th Aug. But there will handful of units up for grab. <20 maybe.

Whaaat? 1.99?

forget coming sales .looks like the bargains are already there.

Yea sure, with 90$ shipping great bargain.

Don’t bother with the “Gaga Sale”. There’re only 5 pieces or something of each and always some Russian using automated bots will get them all. This is even more popular than Wallbuys so there’s almost no chance to get.

But the regular sales are to go after. Cheap even before coupons. But make sure to double check during the sale day to make sure seller hasn’t inflated the price.

Yep that’s exactly right. Normally I find more lights I want to buy than my budget will allow. But always from normal lights that are on sale for that day only and I also use a coupon. There won’t be many 50% off lights but lots of them will be 10-30 percent off and with a coupon you can pick them up even cheaper.

i didn’t know they had a BLF coupon.

Dont thing there is a BLF coupon.

No BLF coupon, you have to play their silly game. That or normally just before the sale starts they offer some for free or during the sale they also give some away at the start of the hour. Limited quantities. They also sell some coupons for a buck.

Are the coupons only for higher prices like 30$ and up like the game coupons or for the small lights as well?
I have some lights on my watchlist, but most are cheap ones.

The coupons have a minimum purchase requirement although if you purchase from the same seller you can combine them to meet the minimum. Also make sure to put anything you see that you want in your watch list because the day before or the day of the sale some of them will probably be discounted. So even if you don’t hit the minimum you will most likely have a couple that are on sale. There are several sellers on aliexpress that you probably know already. Wallbuys for instance has a store so does Ric who sells the Shocker and other lights. I mentioned the Yupard dealer earlier for this reason as well. They have several nice lights for cheap already and combining a few of them can allow you to use a coupon and get a super good deal.

Last time on sale I used two coupons:
2$ off 10$
5$ off 25$

Now there is only 3$ off 29$ (smallest total).

Doesn’t look that good anymore but lets see on 19th.
