Pros: Its a beautiful and different product. Does its job well. Good light at night. Attacks eyes... Very easy to install. Price is good. I cant compare with local stores because this product doesnt exist in any store near to me.
Cons: Sometimes, it can turn on without movement. Switch system is not perfect. Take care to plug it firmly, otherwise it can fall and you will have a problem because without movement, it will be hard to find it (no light, of course).
Other Thoughts: Its a good and cheap option to make your bike different.
Bottomline: Buy and test it. Its cheap.

Pros: Very bright for a flashlight keychain! Perfect for a keychain or for a flashlight (or both...). You may keep it "on" using a key or just pressing it for a momentary light. Small to take in a pocket or in a bag. I let one in the car, for an emergency. Price is very good.
Cons: Take care putting it in small places. There is no way to keep it "off" and you may press it accidentally.
Other Thoughts: I bought it use it as a gift. People really like it. They got surprised to see so bright light in so small device.
Bottomline: Instead of give it, Im thinking in sell it...

Pros: A great necklace! Nobody can pass near to it without notice it. It really attracts eyes. False cracked beads are really impressive! Really beautiful! Its well built. Nothing to say about that. I cant believe how it costs only $4.97. It really looks like more expensive than this.
Cons: Its a bit big. Maybe wont fit to small women. But you have to buy to test it. Nothing more to say as a “cons”. This necklace is really great.
Other Thoughts: Very good product. Quality is perfect.
Bottomline: If you need something to give to a woman, can be an option.

Pros: Its a simple product to test voltage. But it does its job. Its small enough to take it to any place. If you make electrical fixing, its a good product. Price is unbelievable. You may more than one, for sure. Lcd has a good looking.
Cons: There is no manual. Its a problem because some measures are not clear about how to do it. After some time, you got used to it and problems disappears. Lcd is a bit confusing in its measures. Another thing to get used to.
Other Thoughts: For a fixing store, its perfect.
Bottomline: If you need it, buy it. It has a good quality.

Pros: Very beautiful beads. Beads are not so big as a ready bracelet like sku.9784. You may make any bracelet, mixing with others beads, like sku.15891 and sku.15834 They are ready to DIY. You just have to insert a string. DX sell some string to this but they are expensive if compared with local stores, because we will just need a small quantity and DX sell big quantities.
Cons: No cons. If you like to make your own bracelets, its a good deal.
Other Thoughts: Its very expensive in local stores. So, once more DX has good prices.
Bottomline: If you like DIY, its for you.

Bottomline: Great for the price. Take your Zodiac keychain because all of them look like great.

Pros: Its a very good shoes, which will heat your feet in cold winters. Material is good too and its well-built. Color is great and cow design make it cute. You may use it without to plug in a computer. Just remove the heaters and you have normal shoes. If you want to use it far from a computer (my wife uses it in this way), you may buy http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.4823 Temperature is very good. You wont fry your feet with it.
Cons: Heats are a big small, but normally, are enough to be comfortable. Price could be better.
Other Thoughts: Its a great device for a gift, especially for women with cold feet.
Bottomline: Great looking and very useful.

Pros: Really beautiful sport watch. Manual in several languages. Easy to set date and time. Very good material (silicon rubber). Soft to use in sports. Good package. Instruction about battery changes. Good price. Well-built.
Cons: I really don’t know what means “Ionizer (1900 ions/cc) and "far infrared ray" (>90%) help reduce fatigue and stress”, because it’s a simple watch. I looked a lot trying to find some different, but it’s a watch. Nothing more than that.
Other Thoughts: Very good watch. If you like sports, its done for you.
Bottomline: I recommend it.

Pros: I needed one single AG4 for a watch and in my town, it costs about $2.5. For this price, I could buy a 10-pack in DX! Now, I have 9 more batteries to others devices/watches. Amazing price, nobody can beat it. I have tested all batteries and all of them were ok. Good package. Its one of the reason for all of them were ok.
Cons: There is no way to split them. You have to use a scissors to do that.
Other Thoughts: I believe I will use only 1 or 2 of them in a year but for this price, it payed itself in one single application!
Bottomline: Its a good option to resellers because it comes in a very good package. If you intend to sell them separately, use a scissors to split them.

Pros: Very good and different product. Color is great. Kids love it. Very well built. Looks like resistant (and its). It really can clean small pieces of dust/garbage from work space. Price is good to buy it and use as a gift.
Cons: No cons. Really good and does the job. Maybe... its not too easy to open and close the upper side to change batteries, but not so hard in fact... Maybe we could choose the color... I got the violet one.
Other Thoughts: Its a good product to have at hand. It will teach kids to keep work space clean.
Bottomline: Its a good price for a good product. I recommend it.

Pros: Its has a good speed for a so cheap memory card. 4 GB is a very good quantity of memory for pictures. If you intent to make long movies, maybe you have to choose another one, with more capacity. Its very, very similar to an original one. I dont know if it is or not. In fact, its not important because this card does the job we need. REALLY FAST!
Cons: None. Maybe a better package but its a wish, not a need.
Other Thoughts: I dont know how they can sell this card for this price.
Bottomline: Its a good option for fast cards. I didnt make tests but I noticed it faster than any other card I already used. Buy it. its very, very good for the price and really fast.

Pros: Its a different product. I bought it to test because windshield wiper of my car is a bit old and its very expensive (really expensive).
Cons: If does its job. Wipers are a bit better after applied but its not as a new one, of course. It came with a bag. Its good.
Other Thoughts: You have to re-apply it after some days. Its a bit boring but its a price you have to pay to not buy new and expensive wipers (in my case).
Bottomline: If your car uses cheap wipers, buy new ones. If your car uses expensive wipers, like mine, its a good solution to put the changing for new ones some months ahead.

Cons: Its easy to apply it in the paper. Color is very beautiful. Its very cute to kids. They love its color and shape. Very well built, the outside at least. Read more below.
Other Thoughts: In the end of the tape, you may have problems with the tape. Solution is open this product, take the used tape out and apply some adhesive in the left tape. Or just give up to use it because its just a small quantity you will loose. You may have problem in some paper. A few ones dont accept this tape very well.
Bottomline: Good pro the price. I recommend it.

Pros: It works as promised. It removes most of odor of several kinds. Its easy to use. Just use it as a soap. Its cheap to the job which it does.
Cons: Of course, it cant remove under nails. Just clean what you can reach.
Other Thoughts: I dont know how it works, but it works. It works better with some odors like meat. For chicken, fish and garlic you have to use it a bit more, to change to a weak odor. If you use it, remaining odor will be lost in a few minutes. If you dont use it, remaining odor will last hours.
Bottomline: It wont remove 100% of the odors but near that, so, for this price, its a good deal.

Cons: Its a good idea to buy seeds from DX but I dont know what happens... All my seeds simply didnt germinate. Maybe its a problem in customs. They have x-ray and this could kill seeds. Im not sure about that but I just can think in this. I tried everything to have my seeds germinated. I gave some to friends and all of them couldnt have it germinated too.
Other Thoughts: Im sad with that. I was waiting so much for this set after so much troubles with others skus.

Bottomline: Great ninja star. I will buy another styles too! DX was late to start to sell shurikens but now, they surprised us with a lot of great styles!

Pros: It has a good price. In Brazil, I would spend more. They are soft, very good for delicate paintings. They are not heavy. It turn them in a good tool because you may use them easily. You will receive six of them, all in different sizes.
Cons: "Hairs" are no so long as I waited. There is some applications I wont use it because that. Wood is not so good as in the pictures, it is weak. Lets see how much it will last.
Other Thoughts: Its a good set of paint brush if you make small paintings. Eventually, I use them to clean things but they are not good because "hair" is too short.
Bottomline: The whole size is small than waited. but I dont know if its good or bad. Depend of your application.

Pros: Its a device which has a good looking. Design is great. It has big digits, so its easy to read it even far from it. Temperature measure is a plus for me because I just wanted a radio/clock with alarm. There is a manual in Chinese and English, good enough to make things work. Display uses a cell battery and you have to remove a piece of paper to activated it. Its good to avoid the device be turned on during the shipping.
Cons: Radio system is a bit crap. One button to turn it on/off/volume, one to find the next strong station and one for “reset” to 88mhz again and restart the scanning. Its a cheap radio inside a great clock. Buttons of clock look like cheap and weak. Lets see how many time it will last.
Other Thoughts: Its a good option for a gift because the design is really great.
Bottomline: Forget the radio if you enjoy to listen to radio and like good music quality.

Pros: Good padlocks. You may change the combination, but just if you know the old combination. Its a great feature for a device so cheap. As title says, its assorted and it really is, because there are 13 different styles. Mines are different from the picture showed here. Its very simple to change the combination and there is simple (but enough) instructions on the back of the package. Its very cheap, like almost everything in dealextreme...
Cons: Its smaller than I thought. So, its useful for places where a strong padlock is not so important, like baggages, gyms, etc. One of them arrived damaged but dealextreme will replace it.
Other Thoughts: Very good for not top-security places.
Bottomline: Design is great and price is non-sense.

Pros: Its a very good shoes, which will heat your feet in cold winters. Material is good too and its well-built. Color is great and panda design make it cute. You may use it without to plug in a computer. Just remove the heaters and you have normal shoes. If you want to use it far from a computer (my wife uses it in this way), you may buy http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.4823 Temperature is very good. You wont fry your feet with it.
Cons: Heats are a big small, but normally, are enough to be comfortable. Price could be better.
Other Thoughts: Its a great device for a gift, especially for women with cold feet.
Bottomline: Great looking and very useful. Im going to buy one or two more.

Pros: Its a great lighter. I was not waiting for a so good one, especially for this crazy price! It has a big butane tank in strong glass. It came with almost half of the tank with butane (the normal is just a bit of butane, due the shipping). It came with a stand and its good to keep it secure. Flame is very good. I dont know if the whole lighter will resist a long time running. My use will be just quick uses, so, no problem. There is a cap too but for me its useless. It came in a plastic bag, but very packaged, so there is no way to have problems during shipping.
Other Thoughts: Great lighter for a mad price.
Bottomline: If you need a strong lighter to use in your job, you found it. I recommend it.

Pros: Its a very beautiful watch. I couldnt believe when it arrived. Its very well built, heavy enough to make it looks like a very expensive watch! In fact, it looks like to be a $50-$100 dollars watch. It comes in a plastic bag, with a hole on it, to hang it. Perfect to resellers. Price is unbelievable and you make a good profit with it.
Cons: Small hands at centers are fake, but they make a good looking, so its not a big problem.
Other Thoughts: If you want a watch to make a good profit, its a good option.
Bottomline: Amazing price for the quality!
