Amazon is literally aliexpress but with a more sophisticated UI.
Nothing but absolute shit chinese knock off products. No longer can you get the same kind of savings like you could in the past. You're basically paying full retail now, plus prime or shipping.
Ali has good stuff depending on what you're buying. Amazon usually has the exact same stuff for like 50% more
But ali takes like 2 months to ship.
No it doesn't. It usually takes 10 days for me. Sitting in US customs is like 5-6 days of that time, too.
