Have you tried Aliexpress?

From what I've seen, that is the option which saves the most on shipping. Anbernic's own site adds way too much with shipping, but when they sell on Aliexpress that drops so significantly. I've seen a few users saying it is the way to go, so maybe it is worth a look!

Thanks, will definitely take a look!

Edit: Even with the "coupons" on AliExpress, it's still ~$20 more than the advertised $57 intro price on the site ($75 all-in). Unfortunately I think it's just a tease price, and they are hiding some of the cost in shipping.

Man Chinese sites always kill me with this, so much bamboozlement and obfuscation across the board, and good luck getting a refund if anything goes wrong
