Watch the warranty on HC RGB lights.  It may be very, very short for the prices.

In the next couple of months nearly every vendor has pre-sales.  A fellow on the lor forums I think it's north country lights tries to keep a running list of the pre-sales.

Link from last years.

I ended up the last couple of years participating in group buys for shipments directly from Ray for most of it.   If you want something custom ping him and use the aliexpress cart with a proforma invoice from ray for the extra security if you are not comfortable sending a $1000 off to China :)

Which sites tend to run group buys from Ray?  I have bought directly before but would love to save a few cents per node.
