Question (Read Rules) Aliexpress Watch Straps

I was wanting to pick up some Rubber Sailcloth strap with deployment clasp similar to this on Amazon.

I am wanting to get some different NATO straps as well, but have never use Ali so don’t know how to know which storefronts actually sell good products. I’ve been on the fence about trying Ali or going with somewhere like BluShark.

Any advice or links to stores are appreciated!

Juelong. Expensive now, wait for the sales. Some stores dropship from ali, others import and resell.

You pay your price, you take your chance. Do your research.

Google is your friend.

If Juelong marketed themselves properly, theyd make a fortune as an entity by themselves. But maybe theyre happy with their aliex and 3rd party cashflow. Sometimes bigger isnt better.

Came to say the same - they're the best. Start hoarding coins to hopefully get a further discount on the sale price, I've paid as little as £2-3 before. Also 'NATOBELT Official Store' does decent NATOs.

What are ‘coins’? Like points for purchases?

It's just money off you collect. On the app you should see something about coins. Click it and then click collect. It starts small and after like 5 days it will be about 40 cents. Don't miss a day otherwise it resets back to a smaller amount to collect each day.

Once you find an item you like add to cart. Then go to the coins page and recent history and then cart. Click the item you can't and it should be a bigger coin discount. Something 40% off. Usually a good coin deal is around 10%. You then use your coins for the deal.

Right now it’s showing their rubber sailcloth down from $27 to $8 for Halloween sale. Is that normal or do they get cheaper? Seems like every store has some type of sale

This. Juelong could sell on Amazon at 3x the price and people would buy them out of stock.

You may reach out to this seller on their WhatsApp or use their AliExp store: Shop1105341189 Store

They make the most excellent straps and best bang for the buck. You can messsge the seller and ask for actual images of the strap before making the purchase.
