I'm prone to losing sunglasses, so some years ago I went through the process of testing out a dozen Alibaba sunglasses to find the best ones. I settled on one that's $4/pair, sturdy, and looks/feels/functions just like a $50 pair. Of course, being Alibaba, I had to buy it in bulk, so I now have sunglasses for life.

But that brings me to the type of site I want to see. Not curated luxury products like Le Creuset cookware at a markup, but curated dirt-cheap Alibaba products with low margins that have been tested and vetted extensively.

Massdrop or Monoprice are a little bit like this, but only for a few niches like headphones or cables.

Massdrop (Drop?) has had filler garbage for quite a while. I think (maybe one) part of the issue is mechanical keyboards got much more popular and drops were less necessary for good stuff.

I used to love Drop when they did outdoor gear. My favorite pocketknife is one of their collabs. Unfortunately they just do headphones and keyboards now, a move I certainly don't understand as those are really crowded segments with hardly any bottom.
