Best price according to the camels. A few different opinions on this over the last few deals but we've been happy with ours and have bought a backup one based on our experience.
Limit of 2 per customer.

A long thick USB 3.0 cable to put it in the right area for sufficient signal strength will do the job.
$69 is ridiculous. Even one with a sticky outy thing is way cheaper than $69:

Unfortunately, it's not only them. Dlink is the same. But, I would trust Dlink more as Asus is horrible in software support.
What is the use case for the dongle?
For motherboards with no built in wifi or if the onboard wifi has stopped working.
The wifi on our laptop wasn't that reliable so we wanted something as small as possible to get the wifi up and running again. Bigger dongles can get in the way, get bent or damage the port of whatever. This ASUS dongle suits our needs.
I would avoid these unless you are buying it to sabotage a sibling.
I bought two for my family and had to return them as they were almost useless.
Performance would be alright for a few mins but then it would get hot and speeds would slow to a crawl. This is with the router being 1 room away.
The lack of an antenna seriously restricts its range.
The RRP is kinda comical.
A thing needs sticky outy antenna things to be worth $69
