My issue isn't condensation - a handful of plates always have little enough condensation that I can use them immediately and the rest sit on my shelf till I need them, giving ample time for condensation to dissipate.
My problem is that they dry out over time. I've resolved to leaving them in a glass dish with a thin pool of water at the bottom that prevents them from drying out 
Honestly though if condensation is an issue just shake the moisture out; water droplets will fling out through the threads.

I'm already inline to do BOD's agar TEK (my first grow and AGAR attempt) , but really like these with the screw on tops!!! Will play out the 40 dishes I have, but will try these next.
The others I really wasn't a fan of the pop off tops, and really liking these screw on. Yes I'm a noob, but could see me phuk'n something up for sure.
Links in the OP are not any good, so will have to source else where, but like the idea of reusing vs one use

O my.... I had trouble finding them in EU, normally I could get them from amazon. But went looking outside eu, thought I found a great deal 20 pieces pack.. ordered it .. purchased from the US so I'll need to pay extra... But... noticed i bought the wrong ones! Apparently there is a smaller size too

It has a much smaller thread.. much smaller size.. so I hope they still do the trick.. I don't mind smaller ones, I never had a contam issue with the normal ones (sitting, doing nothing for a month) so I hope the short thread will still be long enough to keep contamination out.. time will tell. Would be a nice size for cutting up wedges for 1 jar at a time

Bought some more normal ones via ali... they seemed exactly the same diameter and look the same (even compared the thread).. this stuff should come from china right, if I can confirm they are the same, I'll share it here (for the members in the EU).

The Amersumer ones (third source from OP, possible defective lids) are back in stock on Amazon, but shipping from China: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083HXXB34. $14.99+$6.00 delivery fee for 20, so just over a dollar apiece. Unfortunately since they're coming from China, shipping time is estimated at 4-6 weeks to the U.S.

I just found these in-stock on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09JN6G7MX/. They look like the right ones, and seller confirmed they're PP, and a customer review states that they withstand PC use.
10 for $12.99, 20 for $22.99. Ships from Amazon.

I was looking at these too from the Beebeecraft site. I noticed the dimensions and thread were a bit different but I could get 60 for just over $30 shipped. If you get a chance to use them and could share your experience, it would be greatly appreciated. Without the free shipping, it's not worth it for me over the original ones that are $22 shipped from Amazon. I'd hate to end up with 60 plates I couldn't use. Also, I looked several times at Aliexpress for something similar including a photo search and had no luck. Do you have a link for what you found at Ali (I assume Ali is aliexpress or Baba)? Thanks.

Yes, I was able to abort my order there, so I did. This is the site from aliexpress indeed: https://m.nl.aliexpress.com/item/32789169421.html?srcSns=sns_WhatsApp&spreadType=socialShare&bizType=ProductDetail&social_params=60220788215&aff_fcid=412187a2f5a54690b61133fddc99dcd7-1668457970166-09327-_EjRMeQH&tt=MG&aff_fsk=_EjRMeQH&aff_platform=default&sk=_EjRMeQH&aff_trace_key=412187a2f5a54690b61133fddc99dcd7-1668457970166-09327-_EjRMeQH&shareId=60220788215&businessType=ProductDetail&platform=AE&terminal_id=caca0274a3334a78bb9061465bb1ff62&afSmartRedirect=y&gatewayAdapt=glo2nld
Its in Dutch, sorry for that.. link if I would share it directly: https://a.aliexpress.com/_EIiaxDB
Hope it points you to the right place. It looks exactly the same.. but it hasn't arrived, so I can't confirm yet.

Ali delivery just arrived (L is new one). They are identical apart from a digit in the plastic:
 Original has a 1 underneath.. the other a 2.. not sure what the difference is. Both pp5, the thread looks identical, sound the lid makes to check for enough clearance is also the same.. overal feel, edges, opening and closing the same.. will test them out in the PC tonight.. the new one is a bit more clear, but I would say it's because it hasn't been through many pc cycles yet. will update (ignore the overly thick layer of agar, had the intention to use it a semi-slant.. but decided that's a waste of these containers, using cryovials)
Edit: some new ones also have a "1"

I think you may have found the current holy grail price for HG plates. Prices at Ali including shipping to NA are from $0.65-0.75 each. I'm not sure how you managed to find them. I failed over and over. Seems like they made it to you pretty quickly too.

I think it's just a per-batch unit identifier. You can find the same on some glass marmalade jars, glass beer bottles, etc.

I just entered 'bead container twist pp' and just looked.. page after page after page.. and accidentally stumbled on them after checking some details of a ventor. Fortunately there is this forum where we can share the info and help another..

When did they start shipping from China? I feel like they were coming from there when I got them last, and I got mine in just a little over a week.

So my HG plates came today. They look a bit more on the clearer side rather than a frosty look and im ok with that.
I decided to jump right in as soon as the package arrived. I prepped my agar pretty standard recipe slightly modified. I used 750ml water 15g agar 10.5 lme
I decided to raw dog cook em as mentioned in the thread. Lots of condensation but that doesnt bother me. What bothers me is the fact that once it dries the water spots left behind are a bitch!! Totally makes it hard to see through now.. Wtf How do i get rid of the ghost drops.
Guess the condensation won this round
