nice job on the presentation and website, and I can easily see myself using this service. some questions: - can these products be found on amazon? - if so is there a way to quickly compare prices? - what are the criteria that you use for determining is something is "high quality"? for example I care a lot not just about the aesthetics, but about the quality of the materials. - related to the above, if you are curating and reviewing internally, you might consider posting brief in-house reviews to give the user more context. looking forward to trying out this service!

@lnchoi Thanks! Some of them can be found, but it's a bit tricky. Would love to map it all back to the places you can source everything. We physically review products for quality, but also before anything gets added we check online reviews, seller ratings etc

This is great! Love it! Something so simple yet effective. Can I ask what the business model is behind it and how well that scales? How many sales do you need to hit to meet your target revenue? Sorry if the questions are a bit personal, if you don't want to post it publicly you can reach me by PM or if you don;t want to answer at all I also understand that :-)
Tim Scullin
@colinwinhall Stoked you like it! And thanks for the q's. I can't answer them all, but the business model is affiliate but we also have a subscription service for people who are looking to source products to sell.

Hey Everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹ We're stoked to be launching Thieve Premium! Sometimes you just want the best, and Thieve Premium is exactly that! A collection of hand-curated products all meticulously reviewed and photographed in-house. This is our answer to some of the biggest challenges we've faced finding products on AliExpress. Curated by Humans Each product has been curated by a human. No bots involved, ever. Each product is hand-selected for quality, style, and value. Physically Reviewed Each product has been held in our hands and reviewed. There wonโ€™t be any surprises when you order here. Authentically Photographed We took each product into the studio and shot high-quality authentic content. No photoshop involved whatsoever. What you see is what you get. This is just the beginning, but we're stoked to be sharing it with you here as part of the Product Hunt community! If you have any feedback, let us know! Shout out to @jonnotie for the hunt ๐Ÿ™Œ Cheers, Tim

@jonnotie @timscullin Can you explain the reasoning behind the name? Thieve = to steal. I get it that you thought "I'm getting a steal" for a good deal, but I'm dubious of the name.
Tim Scullin
@brianbreslin it actually started out as a nod to Alibaba and the forty thieves (AliExpress is part of AliBaba). But then the association with getting a steal was also nice

Shout out to Death to Stock for the cover image ๐Ÿ”ฅ

very well designed website/product! great job on the curation. You often see these kind of websites that have curated with bots or whatever, they mostly have a ton of products on it with no real "value" but as far as I can see that's not the case here ๐Ÿ‘
Tim Scullin
@erhankaradeniz Thanks!! We've been working hard ๐Ÿ’ช

This looks like a great idea similar to "Italic" launched here on product hunt that was all the fuss. I second the product market fit!
