I hope this isn’t perceived as advertising… I’m quite apprehensive about making this purchase and will absolutely update with my progress if/when the console arrives.

In the meantime, if anyone out there has any experience buying through AliExpress I would love to hear from you. This is my first purchase and I feel like it’s a total gamble.

If this is somehow perceived as advertising, mods please delete immediately. I do not want to violate any rules. This community is too awesome to lose!

    It’s absolutely the best place to buy stuff like this. I buy spools of addressable LEDs, ESP boards, random electronic components, and smart home stuff from there provided I can wait a week or two to get it. You’re buying the exact same stuff from Amazon most of the time but at much cheaper prices with longer shipping times.

    That said, I probably wouldn’t ever buy a branded product like OP did because if they screw you over it’s going to be a huge pain to try to get a refund and there’s a decent chance it’s not as described or straight up counterfeit.
