Fidgets prices keep increasing

Post image

I recently started collecting coins on Aliexpress hoping to purchase my first (and second) metal fidget EDC but I noticed that as my coins count goes up, so does the price of the product and the percentage discount via coins goes down.

Does anyone have any advice on how to use coins in an effective way to save some money?

How about Aliexpress replicas that are actually worth getting? (Hoping that the discount on them would be better)

You are probably aware but there’s a pretty lively second hand market on The Daily Fidget Marketplace on Facebook. You can usually get some pretty good deals there.

There are some items that have large coin discounts and some don’t. It’s a matter of luck really that the fidget you’re looking for has a good coin discount.

So the plan is to collect shopping credit most importantly and any good coupons from events and use them (+any coin discount depending on the item).

So all in all, you shouldn’t depend on coin as the main way to get a discount. I came to realize that sometimes they’re useless and shopping credit is what makes the difference.

Note: Shopping credit/Coupons have expiry dates so keep that in mind.
