I've about given up on AliExpress. Too many SCAM VENDORS with poorly described JUNK. Mostly COUNTERFEITS with FAKE logos. (18awg wire that's more like 30awg). Search results are useless, yielding about 10 bogus hits for every valid one. (search for chip sockets, get tampons). AliExpress floods my inbox with useless shipping "updates" to tell me my ordered item has been moved from one side of a warehouse in China to the other side of the warehouse. AliExpress floods me with endless SCAM PROMOS for cheap products with HUGE SHIPPING CHARGES ($6 shipping charges sneakily added during checkout, for a $1 product). Like many, AliExpress has lost their ways. They are too plugged into the social media frenzy of endless promotion and fake excitement. They need to "stick to the knitting" and match valid sellers and buyers, with well-described, and fairly priced products, and reasonable shipping. End the scammy promotion gimmicks.
