JXD 7800B at DX for 47,90??!!
« on: November 19, 2013, 04:00:30 pm »
I've just found this. I think it is general interest because the price is 47,90!!!!

I think they made a mistake.

I don't think that DX sells faulty devices. To me looked like a mistake but the 71% discount looks fine.

I would think that this JXD model is so bad that they want to sell it asap. 

At that price is a temptation to check it.

im pretty sure it isnt just lack of demand but a simple mistake but why not have a crack and hope they honor the deal i guess.

I have a Wilgoo unit and so far I like it - firmware issues aside. I figure I'll give the second as a gift

Didn't really want one because of all the issues, but 47 dollars is just too good to pass up. Even if it ends up being a complete piece of crap, it wouldn't be a big deal.(assuming DX actually sends it)

In 4 one, wonder if it will go thru? surely this is a pricing mistake?

I'll be happy an sad if it goes thru.. happy cause it's a great price, sad because I already bought one at 165 and have had it less then a week :(

Can anyone confirm if this is for real? I was just checking at their condition's page, and found this:

Quote
4.6 Except where noted otherwise, the List Price displayed for products on the Site represents the price suggested by the supplier. The List Price is a comparative price estimate and may or may not represent the prevailing price in every area on any particular day. With respect to items sold on the Site, DX.com cannot confirm the price of an item until you order. Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items in the catalog may be mispriced. If an item's correct price is higher than the stated price, DX.com will, as instructed by the seller, cancel your order, notify you of such cancellation and make necessary compensation to you after friendly consultation with you.

Pretty much standard.. pricing mistakes happen regularly online.
Most of the time they catch it before it ships, some times they dont.. and sometimes they catch it but still honor it.
occasionally they'll also try to negotiate a middle ground price... example they might offer you the unit close to their actual cost to keep the customer happy.. or they might offer a coupon or discount.. 10-20%.

I don't know how DX handles it.. this of course assuming the price is a mistake and not for real.
They may cancel and offer nothing.

If it is a price mistake, The more people who know about it, The more orders they get, The more likely they'll both 1: catch it and 2: not honor it.

If they only had a few orders they might honor a price mistake, if they have a bunch though it becomes cost prohibitive because at this low of a price im sure it's below cost and they're taking a loss... again assuming it's really not a clearance.

The op has done us all a service by letting us in on the deal, Frankly they could have not shared it and increased their chances of getting a unit (lower volume = more likely it will ship).

For the love of god no one post this on a deal site like fat wallet or slick deals or I guarantee you no one will get one if it's a pricing mistake.

Don't order an insane quantity like 50.. just order 1 and be happy if it goes thru.

And no one ask DX if the price is correct.  ::)

Be cool and maintain.

I ordered one earlier today. No one has canceled the order at DX and I've got my fingers crossed.

Exactly, Just want people to use their heads and know the do's and dont's
It only takes 1 person to kill the deal, if it's a pricing mistake.

I honestly don't know what to make of it, My first thought was it's a pricing mistake.. the price on
these has been up and down and crazy.. It's possible someone has a stock of these and just wants to unload them.
But..... Even if that's true the price is still to good for clearance.

Everyone just use your heads and let's wait and see.. usually takes DX several days to ship anyway.

I doubt that's the case, but if it is, fine by me... the SU and lightleak problems are both very easy to fix...

Is this site Legit? I dont mean wether they'll honor the discount or not, but in general?

I've purchased Arduino stuff from them several times over the last couple of years. I've never had a problem with them. They're a bit slow to ship and the items come from China/Hong Kong so that adds even more to the arrival time. Expect to wait a week or two to get anything you order.

DX is very legit, although as mentioned they can be very slow at times.. one time it took damn near 2 months..
They are pretty slow but they won't rip you off if that's what you're asking.

EDIT: Some idiot named "Li3uda" is asking about the price on the DX msg board..
If it's a pricing mistake they'll probably end up getting the deal killed.  ::)
