We suppose that OpenBCI made in China is part of a marketing trust & stock market speculations has been done with those products, what should buyers do in this case?

Products which are sold on www.OpenBCI.com have in general stable prices. But this is not the case with OpenBCI made in China:

099d. OpenBCI made in China – what do we know about it?

OpenBCI products made in China are offered for a low starting price. We suppose that the starting price for the cheapest EEG modules are linked to the cost of individual TGAM EEG modules which are sold on Aliexpress.

On the other hand, prices of the EEG modules are randomly scattered. They have partly the same price or even higher prices than EEG modules which are sold on www.OpenBCI.com.We suppose that the prices for these products are controlled by a marketing software which wants to make as much money out if it as possible.

We observed at other times that OpenBCI made in China disappeared from Aliexpress, and if we complaint about this, they came back.

Which means that the «big brothers» who sell OpenBCI made in China are watching you. Is «big brother» OpenBCI made in China Texas Instruments?

Furthermore it is an issue for buyers not to have stable prices. We basically cannot write reviews about these products which are positive. We risk that the prices are increased as a consequence. And if we are not able to do this, or do not want to do this, will we find a community for these products? Our community seem to be the sellers who want to make money out of us. So how should buyers who are interested in these products react?

We suggest only to write about the issues these products have, or write about the reasons which make you retreat from those. For everything else buyers risk to be punished with having to pay a higher price for these products.
