DX Condoms - 3.84USD for 50
T Man on 17/11/2008 - 01:31 www.dealextreme.com (1807 clicks)

As usual, free delivery. Extremely cheap, compared to what I usually pay. And its always good to have a some around. There are a variety of types on there, as well as smaller packs (if you don't use 50 in a year, remember condoms do not last forever).

I haven't tested them myself, but they appear to be tested by DX quite extensively and are electronically tested as well by the manufacturer. Enjoy.

      heh, that was my concern as well :) i figure some sort of 'practice run' might be in order to make sure,

    One of their selling point is:

    • Product of China — where locals rely on such products to avoid birth control penalties (the government legally enforces birth control and fines "overage")

    thats not a good endorsement - I think actually its quite offensive

      lol, that is a good selling point actually.

      I don't think I'm game enough to try them though. ;)

      how is that offensive?

    Well, how can I say no to this offer. Even though this 50 pack would most likely last me two lifetimes, how can I resist telling people I order my condoms in packs of 50? It might actually work in my favour.

    Not to mention the fact that it's been electronically testeo.

      u need to get laid more, mate.. 50 is on average once a week.. and to be honest, i reckon abortion would cost more than what you would save on these condoms.. i won't put my trust in but it's a good catch for ppl who just want to have a safe one night stand..

    lol! You might be saving a few bucks now but just wait till you see the child support bills that you receive when these "made in china" goods fail… Good luck!

    I just dont know if I want to trust my birth control needs to the home of chinese knockoff…..
    But may be a shot for the next kids party.

      I wouldn't be surprised if Ansell et al make their frangas in China anyway. If not, I'm sure they will be soon.

        Actually they are made in India (from memory). Birth control made in the second most populous country in the world?!

        eek!

      walugi on 17/11/2008 - 10:25

      haha yeah, because everything made in china breaks right? Wait, where was your computer made?

      Keep thinking like that, and spend the extra money for "<country> quality".

    VanessaT72 on 17/11/2008 - 07:57

    They come in 3 sizes: Large, Extra Large and Gigantic:)

    itsross on 17/11/2008 - 08:03

    I'm a bit concerned they have a button for customers to submit their own product images. This can only end in pain.

    That's classic itsross!

    They have a population of 1 billion - I don't think their contraceptives are that..umm..successful?

    "they appear to be tested by DX quite extensively" - T Man

    lol that can so be taken the wrong way … lol

    I'm not going to put a negative but I have noticed some of my items from DX have arrived broken, a fact I've found out using some of the items … lol :P

  •  
    Natt on 17/11/2008 - 10:53

    Trying not to get too serious here.

    Its offensive because the population of China is not controlled by using prophylatic contraceptives

    Its a regime which includes bribery, coercion, forced sterilization, forced abortion, and possibly infanticide

    Whether the policy has benefits or not is another issue

    I am just annoyed that the business is using this as a selling point!

    •  
      eug on 17/11/2008 - 13:22

      Mmm, some things aren't meant to be taken seriously. I've used DX quite a fair bit and people are generally quite light-hearted about everything. Just look at some of the hilarious things they sell! I don't think they actually expect that one line to sell more condoms. You can get far more 'offensive' stuff from stand-up comedians - and that's what you'd be directly paying for.

    I think they would get in a fair bit of trouble if these condoms were found to be sub-par in terms of breakages. However, many people (myself included) frequently use more than one method of birth control. I.e. The contraceptive pill, and condoms around ovulation, just in case. I have known people to get pregnant on the pill, so I guess these are good for people like me, who are a touch paranoid, maybe not as a frontline defense.

    Positive vote for the humour factor, if nothing else. And also because DealExtreme give great after-sales service and warranty.

    That means if you experience a unexpected "result"..I suppose they'd send you more. Although I'd anticipate the trouble-shooting procedure might be a little weird for this one…

    shudder

      itsross on 17/11/2008 - 19:28

      They usually make you send a photo of the broken item ;) (or send the item back to them lol)

    funkymonkey on 18/11/2008 - 00:29

    wtf is "Electronically Testeo" anyway? sounds kinky.

      elcheapo on 18/11/2008 - 09:20

      man .. couldn't stop laughing at all your comments !!

      ROFL!! I didn't expect to get this laugh at Bargain site :)

      so Pos+ for the good start of my day ..

    it's even more cheaper than 50 balloons, so get some for your birthday balloons? :-

    •  
      eug on 18/11/2008 - 19:56

      Won't they be a bit … slippery… to play with…?
      It'd also look a bit weird if you ask kids to blow them up…
