While the last sale had some of the best precoupon prices I have seen since I started tracking back in July, this sale has some of the worst precoupon prices. If you're just interested in the spreadsheets and data, scroll to the bottom. I'll be using The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly to summarize this sale.

Spreadsheet of prices:

The Good:

Klarna is back and is offering $20 off $99 for checking out with them. Keep in mind that in order to qualify for the Klarna discount, you need to be above $99 post coupon. So if you're using a $10 coupon such as BSUS10, you need to make sure the precoupon price is $109. Some example deals:

  • x28 is $75 but you need to find $4 of filler to hit the $109 minimum to stack both coupons
  • Any combination such as:
    • 35xxsp (49.15*2) + 11 dollars of filler to hit 109 is a pretax total of 79.
    • 35xxsp+40xxh+3 dollars of filler minus stacking is a pretax total of 79
  • Anbernic devices such as the 35xx, 35xxsp, 35xx h have remained at the same precoupon prices as last time.
  • R36s is $24.75 which is a historical precoupon low and even cheaper if you use the coin super discounts method which brings it down to around $21.
    • You can buy 5 of the white R36s 64gb variants using the coins super discount method, subtract the $30 from the Klarna discount and BSUS10 coupon and end up with 5 r36s for $90 pretax.

The Bad:

As of this posting, there are no new influencer coupons. The old ones still work, provided you are lucky enough to get one in stock. There are some new coupons too, listed below are the US coupon codes. Codes for other countries should be in the "Big Save" section on the homepage of the aliexpress app.

| Influencer Coupon Code (US ONLY) mostly out of stock | Value | |


|


| | HIPTECH9/JOEL9/ANC9/TALK9/GREG9/OWN9 | 9 off 30 | | HIPTECH15/JOEL15/ANC15/TALK15/GREG15/OWN15 | 15 off 60 | | HIPTECH25/JOEL25/ANC25/TALK25/GREG25/OWN25 | 25 off 100 |

| Big Save Coupon Codes (US), other countries look at your big save page to find the codes | Value | |


|


| | BSUS06 | 6 off 59 | | BSUS10 | 10 off 99 | | BSUS30 | 30 off 249 | | BSUS60 | 60 off 439 |

The Ugly:

Precoupon prices are pretty bad outside some anbernic devices and the r36s. This makes it so that unless you are taking advantage of Klarna stacking for a 30 off 109 or buying something such as the r36s which is at an all time precoupon low of $24.75, you're paying inflated prices. Also some anbernic devices are pretty close in price to the last sale such as the 35xx, 35xxsp, and 35xx h.

I'll illustrate with some data below:

10/14 "Big Save" Pricing

10/1 October Choice Sale pricing

Finally, as always I am providing two spreadsheets. The first has affiliate links along with nonaffiliate counterpart links. The second is a separate completely affiliate free spreadsheet if you would like to use that too in case you're worried about accidentally clicking on an affiliate link on the regular spreadsheet. The content of the affiliate free spreadsheet is identical to the other one. I just removed the affiliate links.

| Spreadsheet | Link | |

| | Deal Spreadsheet (Both affiliate and nonaffiliate) | | | Deal Spreadsheet (Only nonaffiliate links) | |

Also one last thing: I'm currently working on a scam seller masterthread/directory. Feel free to contribute and I'll probably make a detailed post in the future on how to spot aliexpress scams.
