What are some brands to look out for during singles day sales? (lemmy.world)

Tomorrow is singles day in China, which I believe is when Chinese sales (equivalent to Black Friday) take place.

Given that it's mainly China-based, there aren't as many blog posts tracking the sales as there would be for BFCM.

So, in an attempt to crowdsource some of this info, what have people used and can recommend? For example, I've had some Haylou W1 earphones which are excellent for the price.

The Chinese watch heads that track aliexpress say that the announced 11/11 sales prices aren't that great this year (following the trend of last year) and plenty of people are waiting for US Black Friday. The really killer deals tomorrow will require the use of the Aliexpress Points system, so the people who have been collecting those will definitely buy a watch or two tomorrow.

Basically, if you haven't been tracking prices there's no way to know if you're getting a deal that's been as good as past 11/11 sales, aliexpress is famous for dealers raising prices to give a bigger % off during sales. If you're talking about another platform I don't have any insight.
