M5Stack - Amazing cheap unit

[Michail Wilson]

Not sure if anyone does any testing with ESP32; however, I have done a lot with the M5Stack.  Very nice unit with enclosure and 2” LCD, 3 buttons, wifi, etc.  I have purchased and used and sold over 100 units.

 

They constantly go on back order, etc, so you can be notified via eMail when they become available.   They are sold directly from M5 for $28 + shipping.  Amazon/eBay sells for $43.  Digikey is $28 + import + shipping.

 

Now the reason for my post….

 

M5 has the new version…. M5Stack Core2.     That is $39.99 from M5 stack, but about $55 on ebay or amazon if available.   More features like Bluetooth, touch screen, motor, etc.

 

Amazon strangely had them listed at $26 shipped.   WTF.

So, I purchased several knowing I could return if clones or wrong item.   It turns out they are original, so, I bought more, and more, and more, and more.   Over the last couple of weeks, they post about 5, sell, and then add more to inventory.   Now that I have over 40 which I don’t have a use for (yet), I thought I would make it public.

 

I bought the last 7 again yesterday which were just delivered.  So, they should be available again in a few days.

Not sure if anyone bought them (Core2 units).  I bought and paid for and received 126 units over a span of 10 orders.

Amazon/Seller finally figured it out and the price went from $26 to $55.

 

Hope a few of you got some.

Hello Yohan,

 

You’re welcome; however, I let everyone know long BEFORE the price over doubled.

 

In fact, you even included my original email from a month ago where I first brought it up on December 16^th after I had already purchased over 40 units, and it didn’t double until January 14^th.   

 

So, you had 29 days and plenty of opportunities since they were relisted every few days with which to have bought them.

 

With that said and even with the tone of your response, I would happily provide you some at my cost, but with the added cost of shipping.

Yeah sorry Michael,
The reason I deleted my post on the group immediately after I discovered that.
But unfortunately everyone’s already received my reply so the damage was already done 😉

All good.   I’ve not been immune to that myself.  (More than once.)   Uhhhg.
