DIY LED Express vs Creative Lighting Displays?

[bravado67]

DIY is nearly half the cost on the same pixels. I did purchase 4 sets of regular bullets from Creative but have not tested yet. I need my Falcons first. Anyone know why there is such a difference in price?

I can't speak for the difference in price nor if one is better than the other. I have been running a couple thousand diyledexpress pixels for 3 seasons now and have replaced less than a handful of individual nodes.

I ordered some other stuff from DIY as well. It gets shipped fast. I am looking at https://www.crockettfantasyoflights.com as well for their PreSale. I only need another 4796 pixels now.

Can't beat Crockett honestly. I have 5000 from him and they are very nice quality
