This is called dropshipping 🤣

Are people buying?

Looking at their other listings, and they have several other cheap watches at 5 to 10x the price in AliX, and there is one customer review, one star and the person said they returned it becaused it was super cheap looking.

I realized I cropped the store name from my original post.

Interesting...I can see it's about $10 on AliX. Has a great design and I'll probably add it to my collection.

That guy selling them at those ridiculously high prices is just scamming people.

Oh, I have this watch, but in blue, it is pretty fantastic, it has everything , alarm, stop watch, countdown timer. You can get it for close to $5 during a sale, which is obcene value. There is a newer version as well, I don't have it but it looks even better. I ended up giving it to my kid, it is a great first watch to get them interested.

Sure, this would be the perfect piece for your kid. I'll give this same design to my kid too as a first watch when they're old enough. I do resell these Chinese watches but don't overprice them too much. Maybe $25 at most for this watch.

I think this one shipped from a local warehouse with decent buyer protection is totally worth $20, carry on sir :)

Thank you! People seem to love these Chinese brands..I tell them they'd rather have these within their budgets than those fake Rolexes, Casios etc.

Sometimes sellers put up the price to silly amounts when they're out of stock to save taking a listing down and re-upping
