    I had thought that electronics were specifically the worst options for counterfeit items. Things labels cables not being certified, or hard external hard drives filled with flash cards. That sort of thing.

    I’m in the US, so maybe our Amazon markets are notably different in choices and prices.

      I’d wager they’re not talking electronic parts like hard drives, but electronic parts like microcontrollers and capacitors, stuff you solder together. It is pretty good for that in my experience in the US, you just have to know what you want beforehand and be good about reading the descriptions.

      You are generally correct. But alixpress is like Amazon. If you find a good seller on their platform chances are you can build rapport and receive quality products. I know a few people who make vapes in America but buy most of their parts off aliexpress and they are all solid pcbs for the PIDs and what not. But no not gonna buy cables off aliexpress lol

        I got a great vape with a shitty battery terminal (the company what makes them fixed the issue in later models. Or I just had a defective unit) and aliexpress sourcing would explain so much.

      I wouldn’t buy any storage from there but I’ve bought things like a 10 pack of tp4056 battery chargers and a clamp multimeter for a really nice price.
