Is there a source for the real deal Dark Sleeper in bulk? This is (21) 3" 1/2oz from AliExpress for a total of $37.30, or $1.78/ea shipped free in 8 days.

Sure, the colors aren't as good as the originals, and manufacturing is inconsistent. The paddle tails are pretty crooked on some, but I was convinced it doesn't matter much when the first 4 of the first batch I tried were bit off by Northern Pike (in a river) on the first or second cast.

Haven't tried them in the weeds yet for bass, but why would I pay $9/ea for them? Not to be an advertisement for AliExpress, but are the real thing 5x better?

  1. Yes, yes they are. Me and my buddy bought the exact same stuff a few years ago. Ended up throwing em all after about 2 weeks. The real one caught so much more fish, was way more durable and swam ten times better.
