Wait are you telling me you pay less simply by switching to USD? Have I been doing it wrong all this time?😱
Wait are you telling me you pay less simply by switching to USD? Have I been doing it wrong all this time?😱Sometimes I really shouldn't rush in the sales. Bought things on the first day of the sale and felt I'd spent enough. Only now remembered a previous advice to switch my currency to USD instead of GBP. Suddenly some of those watches I was hoping not to have to buy are much more tempting even with tax.😩
Yes, for converting from USD to CAD, I've compared AliExpress doing the conversion to PayPal doing the conversion, and PayPal is cheaper.Wait are you telling me you pay less simply by switching to USD? Have I been doing it wrong all this time?😱
Yep, Ali charges a "hidden" exchange fee of around 3-4% for any currency other than $. If you are in the UK, get Monzo or Starling debit card, change the currency in Ali to $ and the final price will be around 3-4% lower than a price directly in £. That actually works for many other shops, like Amazon if you buy from other country in €. Its better to use Monzo card instead of Amazon exchange but their exchange rate is rather fair.Wait are you telling me you pay less simply by switching to USD?

Some random selection of like 30 watches to keep the ball rolling. Some presenting great bang for the buck. The most important criterion I’ve used is the the price must not exceed 100 USD (at least not much)....
Yeah, lots of vintage Chinese watches on Ali. You can’t go wrong with then.Loading…

I would add that one to the list, with some 3$ code (if there are any left) will cost 37$.
It's a looker for sure. Looks like you still have a sticker on the bezel insert though.The per-sale 45-dollar Cooper arrived yesterday and I’m blown away. The quality is spot on the bezel is flawless, everything aligns, the second hand lands where it should. Will mod it anyway to give it the sf300 look. BTW the lume on the dial is somewhat dimmish compared to the hands and I don’t quite like the green indices. For 40+ USD it’s a steal. Well worth the asking price of 90 if you don’t mind quartz.

Not AE and I have no idea availability in your country, but here is a possibility.Someone can suggest me a bezel-less or plain small bezel explorer style, simple watch with white dial, steel (or swatch plastic) case, decent wr and quartz movement for my dad? more or less 40$. I can't find on casio, citizen, seiko, swatch... and I can't find something reliable on ali....
Thanks!
Give me a link to the dial. I also paid for this model today, but I don't need a date window.The Ali Cooper has just received a dial transplant. I think it looks much better with the trimmed raffles dial. The lume is nicer too.
