Buying from Ali express

[Shaikhy91]

I'm looking to buy a streaming device but most places are oos. Ali express seems to have many in stock. I'm a bit worried about buying from there but just wanted to ask if anyone knows of any genuine recommended sellers?

Thanks

I've just bought some new AMS rollers for my 3D printer and delivered within a week.
Bought loads from there in the past and never had a problem.

I buy loads of stuff from there its perfectly safe. Its no different to a china amazon and shipping times are pretty quick.

Look for free delivery options though.

I have had no issues with products I have from Aliexpress and Alibaba.

Most of my gadgets are from there.

You can pay by Paypal so your protected.

I usually buy stuff from there that is labelled as "choice". Had no issues

No issues at all , from cheap stuff to mobile phones , all good , Used to have loads of different accounts for the welcome deals , but they fixed that loop hole , what device you considering?

We have a high expenditure on AliExpress and can't recall the last time I had an issue (duff/poor product is usually reflected by the price you pay for it!).

Discount codes always floating about and sometimes up to 25% cashback via the cashback sites!

The Xiaomi boxes on there are overpriced now (most likely also copies) so if you're looking into them - best to wait for Xiaomi site to restock and get an official unit cheaper.

The only issue with buying hi tec stuff from aliexpress i who covers the warranty if needed. For example buy a xiaomi phone from there and xiaomi uk will not cover the warranty or even talk to you about it.

Yes there are a few disadvantage s can't remember if returns are free. Which is another thing to think of

I was £44 for one back in July last year but they have doubled in price now
