I recall this is a direct-from-China seller that SD shills at least once a week. Products are of poor quality (like below-Walmart stuff) and/or the sizing is weird for Americans.
Has 0 upvotes and is on the front pageโฆ. We all know you can pay to play on SD but this is a new low.
The way it works is scam reseller pays someone to make a post on slickdeals. Usually like $5. Then they use 10 or 20 dummy accounts to vote it up real fast. Then it becomes trending. If the deal isn't god awful like this one than it gains some momentum and sometimes hits the true front page or just stays popular for long enough for the reseller to take advantage of some rubes.
That is what happens to often with garbage tech products that have 1,000 listings of the same product on Amazon and things like these junk cloths. I'd guess the front page of slickdeals has to generate hundreds to thousands of sales. Slickdeals generally doesn't care especially when it is done with Amazon because they still get a slice of the sale regardless of it is done with shill accounts for garbage products.
Stay away from this site, don't know why Slicksdeals still letting it posting on here. It's a chinese website, can't be trusted to keep your credit card information safe.
