Looks like Gearbest caught on and fixed the promo code. My guess is that they won't honor the $19 price like they didn't honor the $7 price.
It doesn't work anymore? Perhaps it was for a limited number of the Minis. The code was specific for the mini so it would be weird if they don't honor it.

Cloupor mini for $19.05 with coupon "cloupormini" now on gearbest.com

I have a silver Cloupor Mini on pre-order from gearbest, but, for 19 bucks, thought I'd pop for a second. No go. Tried putting one in the cart and using the code "cloupormini". The price in the cart dropped from $42-something to $31-something (not quite two bucks more than the price of the first one I'd previously ordered using code "clouporminixr"). Weirdly, however, the refreshed page stated that the coupon code had expired. And no $19.05.

I tried again, using the previous code ("clouporminixr"). Same result. $11 drop from $42 to $31, "coupon has expired," no $19.05.

Am I missing something?

Oh well, having one already ordered is probably enough. Better to wait and give the first one some testing time before ordering a second.

EDIT: In the time it took me to type my post, other posters encountered the same thing---expired code, no $19.05. Looks like gearbest made a mistake and fixed it.

How did they go about notifications when they cancelled those $7 orders? Were they pretty quick with the refunds? I won't cry too much since I've been looking at picking up some other items from FT and would just use the credit for that...but I don't like the idea of them using my funds to accrue interest for a week so they can make a few bucks.

I was able to order two at $19.05, but my cart did the same thing initially. The price was $42, then $31, then finally $19.05.

This was about an hour ago, though. No e-mail from GB saying that it was an error yet either (knock on wood).

I've never ordered from them and I didn't order when they had the $7 error but they sent people e-mails.

This is what they sent people before:

Well, even if this goes through at $19, I think Gearbest has shown that they are a bit flaky with repeated coupon errors. I still don't trust them to be quite honest.

I wouldn't put it past an unscrupulous vendor to intentionally do this to get a flurry of orders so they can accrue interest on the cash short term. These dudes are just highly irregular.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Or even that you have to create an account to use a code- what a nice way to get some email addresses. The fact that this is the 2nd time in a week or so, and add in all the bad reviews they have....I would bet something foul is in the air.

The RDNA 40 is $189.00 and the DNA30 doesn't have a replaceable battery.

They'll last much longer than an Istick and have much better quality with a genuine Evolv chip.

I'm surprised people are still tricked into ordering from them. After reading all the negative reviews, I wouldn't trust them at all.
