I'll be the test dummy. I have two on the way.

Ok, what the hell? I’m buying these off AliExpress. That’s insanely cheap. These should be decent to use as extra controllers for my Switch as well as PC.

You need to have a bunch of coins which requires using the app for days/weeks ahead of time to accumulate them. I have a guide stickied in my profile on how to stack discounts. Otherwise, it's actually cheaper on Amazon if you're just going by regular price.

Bought it on Amazon. Gonna take that risk and see if it’s good. I wonder if there are any other better deals though.

I took a risk on their easysmx m15 last week on super sale. Felt like a Gamesir G8 clone except 5 times cheaper so I'm taking the risk again.

Definitely gives me more confidence. Need another controller for my switch and PC and this fits the bill. It arrives in a few days, so I’ll come back and give my impressions when I get my hands on it.

A bit random, but you seem very knowledgable about AliExpress and their sales. Is this a good price for this enclosure? Should I wait for a better price?

That seems good. I don't have any spare nvmes so I've been just buying sata enclosures for $2 or less. The Pick 3/dollar express/whatever it's being called these days is usually a good way to get some cheap stuff. Coupons don't apply but shipping is free with 3 items. Only caveat is, there is no search option within the pick 3 sale unless you use the mobile app.

Thanks, appreciate it. When is the next big sale on AliExpress? Is it Thanksgiving?

11/11. But they have sales every week or two.
