11:11. Black friday made in china
The Chinese are quite confused on the magic of numbers. Well, for example, in China, the number 4 is almost never found - even in elevators there is often no button with this number, it is almost not found on car numbers. There are understandable reasons for teraphobia: the word “four” in Chinese is consonant with the word “death”. Well, or here is the number 8, remember the joke about her? “ What is the number 8? This is infinity, rotated by an angle in half ” - the Chinese do not joke with this number - for them it is a favorite number, a symbol of prosperity, fullness and perfection. And as you know, part of the perfection is the satisfaction of material needs. But for this there are completely different numbers - four units that add up to 4 or 11.11- This is the magic of numbers that the Chinese are especially excited about. And not without reason - go under the cut, too, rejoice!
In general, these two numbers indicate only November 11, the day that is called the day of bachelors in the Middle Kingdom. It is believed that on this day, fate favors new acquaintances, the establishment of relations and business (personal) ties. Chinese business decided not to miss the opportunity to give a chance to meet single people, and for several years now it has been bringing hundreds of thousands of people to grand sales.
November 11 (November 11) for China is a synonym for Black Friday for Americans. It is on this day that the Celestial shopping centers hold all kinds of promotions and sales, and the most tempting offers appear on the expanses of the network. By the way, the first such sale took place in 2009 in Taobao.
After 6 years, the event turned into a grand tradition that Gearbest could not ignore. Until the sale hour has struck, we will reveal a few secrets so that you do not leave sites empty-handed.
There are two options. The first option will help to get the maximum benefit from the magic four units, but not everyone will be able to use it.
First of all, get yourself coupons , it’s easy to do this: answer the question about the product correctly (the number of attempts is unlimited), enter the answer in the field you need and get the coupon. Coupons can be started to be used on November 11 at 11:11 (UTC), that is, at 14:11 Moscow time, but for each product the coupon will be valid only for the first 5 customers, therefore, to test Citizen Fortuna on the day of sale, you will have to VERY quickly.
The second option is more universal and massive - just go to the sale page and select interesting devices. The quantity of goods is also limited, but the assortment is much larger - there you will find smartphones, tablets, and RC toys, and that's it.
Some models of Chinese smartphones have long been inferior in quality and performance to the flagship models of the more famous manufacturers around the world, so many choose the Chinese at least for the fact that "there is no overpayment for the brand." Here is a short list of the most popular models that you should definitely pay attention to:
Each of these models will be available in the amount of 200 pieces, although the list of smartphones is not limited to this - see the prices for other smartphones on the day of sale, they will be no less attractive.
If the diagonal of the smartphone screen is not enough for you, then in the assortment of our store you can find interesting tablets. For example, an 11.6-inch Teclast X2 Pro tablet on Windows 10 will cost $ 377.69, and an 8-inch Cube iwork8 model on the same OS will cost a modest $ 79.99. In addition to smartphones and tablets, be sure to look at action-cameras (we already wrote about the selection of the most interesting GoPro models and alternatives in our blog on Geektimes), which can also be used as video recorders - these devices are especially relevant for Russia.
For example, the hit model SJCAM SJ5000 Plus will be available for $ 127 (the quantity is limited to 20 pieces).
The discount for quadrocopters and other radio models will be up to 40%. For example, a white SHENGKAI D97 will cost only $ 32.99, while an FS race car - 53910 will cost only $ 166.99. Well, or here is a 6-wheel all-terrain vehicle , which will be available tomorrow for $ 86:
Many girls before the New Year holidays rack their brains over what to present to guys who are familiar tobachelors . And as practice shows, guys rejoice in all kinds of flashlights and multi-tools much more than deodorants and new sets of even the most fashionable socks. And Gearbest has arguments for that: CREE flashlights will cost $ 1.99 and $ 2.19 , and the price for multitools will start ... from 10 cents!
Literally during the writing of this post, we launched a separate promotional page with products for lighting - all kinds of flashlights, lamps, Christmas lights and LED lamps and ribbons are waiting for you. Tip - so as not to be late with the purchase, get ready: add the product to the basket today, and put the page in bookmarks. Then at the start of sales, all the desired gadgets will be ready for purchase. In general, do not delay until later, but right now go to the sale page and read the offers so that 11.11 does not frantically run around the site.
Enjoy the shopping :)
