The Dark Side of Saitama

Not the biggest fan of the Seimitsu buttons, they are not bad but my SiTongs feel more premium. I'm probably going to replace them but I'll lose the art cutouts.

Just a heads up for anyone planning to pick up a fightstick during upcoming summer sales.

AliExpress does have legitimate sellers, but you really have to look closely at the total price, not just the item price.

I came across this listing for a Qanba Q4 (which is an older, discontinued stick), listed at around $90. At first glance it looks like a great deal, but the shipping is over $150 — bringing the real total to $240.

That’s way above what these normally go for, and it’s easy to miss if you’re just quickly browsing.

Not saying every listing like this is fake, but:

• large stock on a discontinued item is a bit unusual
• shipping cost is significantly higher than expected

Just a reminder to always check:

• item price + shipping
• total cost vs market value

Hopefully this helps someone avoid overpaying 👍
