Amazon , 40$ https://a.co/d/6HSc2A6

AliExpress , 17$( see coupons below). https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806198514308.html

Plus AliExpress tends to offer coupons.

So let's say you buy 300$ of stuff from Amazon, and 300$ of stuff from AliExpress.

Even if the products are the same price, AliExpress will offer a 30$ off coupon.

Amazon has to build in a higher margin though, they practically have a no questions asked return policy for anything less than say 100$. AliExpress is a bit more difficult here.

I even remember getting on chat support with Amazon, and telling them I was basically too dumb to put a table together right. No return, they just refunded me $200. You don't get that with AliExpress.



$17 is temporarily half off with list $37.19. So normally it's pretty similar.


Everything on AliExpress is always half off.

Lenovo does this too.

It's just marketing.What matters is at the end of the day what you paid for it.
