What lasts: wireless earbuds "with brand quality", chargers and power banks, vacuums and small home appliances, Arabic-language smart watches, cameras and kids' devices. The winning ad shows the device working within three seconds (the sound, the suction, the screen), then the box and the price.

Inspect it before you pay

36% of electronics ads mention cash on delivery and 29% free delivery: a device is a good whose authenticity the buyer doubts, so inspection at the door is the argument. A discount or an offer in 57%, "limited quantity" in 24%, and a guarantee ("one-year warranty") appears in the longest-running ads more than a discount does.

Where they run

Saudi Arabia and the UAE are the biggest by count, Bahrain and Kuwait the highest by share (Trending in Bahrain, Trending in Kuwait). One ad runs in several countries, except big appliances.

Prices

Of 1,361 ads that stated a price: the lower quartile up to SAR 99, the median 200, the upper quartile from 410. A wide range: earbuds at a hundred and a vacuum at six hundred, and instalments (4% of the ads) are the missed opportunity in the upper quartile.

Who advertises most

The page with the most ads in the category: "Lumvyr02" (446 ads), then "Lumvyr03" (405) and "Lumvyr04" (378). The names with serial numbers are the same advertiser's pages, as in accessories (Watches and accessories ads).

WhatsApp without a store first, then Shopify, EasyOrders and Salla. Electronics is the first category on EasyOrders stores (32% of their ads), the Egyptian-Gulf dropshipping platform. Dropshipping in Saudi Arabia.
