| DealExtreme.com Shoppers? Curious, does anyone actively shop at DealExtreme.com ( RR feedback)? Lots of cheap made in China electronics and gadgets, including many unique items not easily found on retail shelves here in the United States, but at actual cheap made in China prices. The downside is delivery can take from a few days to a few weeks since products are shipped from Hong Kong. |

| It's about time that cheap labor made for a cheap price tag, yes!?
Nice...thanks Rob, I just ordered two rubber band guns for less than $10 shipped. That'll work. ...a 2.5 to 3.5 converter, exactly what I needed for my Rumor, and only $1.41. And some super strong magnets for the fridge...and some AV splitters (one of these days I won't need those stupid things anymore).
Jeez o pete, there's a lot of schtuff there.

| Cheap prices for cheap products, plus where else can you get a Mini Pig 2 LEDs Flashlight for $1.88 shipped?  |

| That's just crazy. I didn't know you could mail that in the states for $1 when you throw in the packaging, much less from Hong Kong. (It's showing $1.18 right now...crazy I say) |

| I've shopped there once, as per my review (about 10th on the page). I try to stay away from them only for the fact that I know I'll buy more stuff than I actually need  but you really can't beat them on some of their deals |

| I hear ya there, RicheemXX! Shopping that place is a bit addicting...though so far I've only made the one order. Each cart thereafter I have cleared because they were all implusive purchases. |

| LOAD UP ON STOCKING STUFFERS FROM DEALEXTREME! Only problem is you have to order mid-summer to be guaranteed that it will arrive by Dec 25th. They are a bit slow, but if you have time to wait, why not . . . |

| That's for sure...if you have time to wait, you can't beat some of their prices. Not everything there is a good deal. They have GTA IV, and a Wii for pretty hefty prices, but the wiikey, and tons of other stuff have prices fresh off the slave labor assembly lines! (many of us are slave labor in my eyes, so don't take that too seriously) |
