Yeah, you linked to Alibaba, which is for buying in bulk from the wholesaler. If you want to get a $200 price for these you, you'll probably be buying several hundred of them at least. Otherwise you'll be paying full price.

"CAR DVD GPS Detachable Car Ipad/MID/WIFI,3G,Google Android 2.1/2.2 Other products by Screen Size: 7"

FOB Price: US $ 130 - 190 / Unit

Supply Ability: 5000 Unit/Units per Week Payment Terms: T/T,Western Union,Paypal"

Also, that is the full price. Paying someone $400 premium on a $200 device is not the same as full price. The $190 figure accounts for $60 worth of manufacturer's time in selling and exporting a single unit to a single buyer. Most of these radios are available in 1-10 unit lots. Had the OP started with "group buy for $200 Android radios, we need 10 buyers" it would be an entirely different story.

Please compare apples to apples. This is not the Adayo unit, this is detachable.

The links did get messed up. Here's the correct one:

I thank the OP for finding the unit and the person who found the wholesale link.

My pleasure, I just hope that no one on this forum will pay more than $250 for this delivered to their doorstep.

gerrylum · 10-16-2012, 01:11 AM

I'm going to contact them to see if they're even willing to ship out just one unit.

do a B2B sample unit request, just remember not to pay the markup

...also don't mention this site in case someone wants to do a group buy later on

Interesting thread. I'd like to hear some opinions about this HU after people have used it for a bit. $200 is not a bad price for something that will be *somewhat* usable like this unit compared to a real HU at a much higher price. After spending time with a CarPC and other app-based HU options, I am happy to pay the higher price for simplicity and reliability.

Having used the other "high end" head units, it absolutely competes with them.

Good find on the bulk ordering page. I'll let the shop know about it.

The only problem with ordering straight from china, is when something goes wrong. If something breaks, can you just return it? LOL

gerrylum · 10-18-2012, 03:53 AM

Any more info on a group buy for these?

Mr.Jay · 10-18-2012, 03:57 AM
