I'm a bit late to the party, I bought it directly through the Gulikit Aliexpress store and I'm getting 3 with some clicking, and then I found this thread. I wish more of the reviewers addressed this problem in the reviews.
Havent had a chance to put them in the joycons yet. Hopefully, they are fine...

You can contact the seller to get the replacement.

So. After all this time, Guilkit still haven't fixed the gap (a sticker is not a fix) and most likely they'll have the click, so no real improvements on the manufacturing process. I hope they end their old stock soon so I can finally order and recommend this.

the hall sticks are not that bad but QC is such a problem. I purchased a pair right after the thread posted because one of my docked forever joycons got drifted even I played my switch docked 90% of time with my pro controller. The first batch I received had clicking sound and even after I calibrated it, this one cannot get calibration circle indicated while pushing all the way forward but it has to be pulled way back a bit to highlight the calibration circle. However, I purchased a second pair recently (the single pack), no idea what version it is but it does not look anything like what pics showed in posts. And one of them is still clicking, left and right this time. So stupid.

this is for you specially, and I tried on an alternative joycon and connected to an alternative switch console at this time, and the problem remains:

However, one more thing is, since I purchased many pairs of Gulikit hall sensor sticks, I don't know if it is my luck or unluck, one of them in each pair has clicking.

I personally won't order GuliKit products after the terrible QC issues and lack of proper support I had with the aliexpress seller which was a top seller of their goods.
I had the kingkong pro 2 and the issues were the same that others had also reported, mind you, I used them maybe a handful of times before these issues occurred and the solution of the seller was half a refund which is unacceptable since I couldn't even use the goddamn thing, shame since the controller worked great and I was recommending a bunch of my friends to get them so we can play smash together, however, I quickly told them to back off after what happened.

Please let me know which seller.

The pic uploaded.
Oh no! official store.
Only represents the AKNES brand, you can choose one you like from 8BitDo Ultimate BT/GuliKit Kingkong 2 pro/Mobapad ChiTU, and give it to you for free. All brand new.
(But you need to supply your Aliexpress Order detail to make sure you had purchased from this store.)

I didn't really understand, the store I purchased from, am I legible for the free product if I provide the details of my order? what do I need to do?

I would very much recommend choosing the ChiTU HD. Aesthetics aside, it is in every single way a better controller than an official Switch Pro controller
This seems very similar to the GuliKit King Kong Pro 2. What do you like about this controller?…..besides hall sensors and price.

While both use mechanical switches and hall effect sticks, (mine tested avg error %0.7 each) the ChiTU is one of few that retains both NFC and haptic rumble functionality. Also while I'm hoping a future iteration moves these to the handles, it has back buttons you can macro and 1:1 remap via the app
edit: KKP2 does support NFC as well

The purpose of wanting your order details is, I want to prove that this is a real thing, so need to see your order, that's all.
Then you only need to PM it to me, and provide your address for delivery after proof.

I see more switch controllers using Hall effect sticks. Perhaps soon, we will start seeing Hall effect stick replacements for the switch pro controller. I’d much prefer to fix something I already have than to trash it and buy a new controller.

Will make this in this year(2023) by GuliKit.
