Aliexpress Marketplace practices, be for warned.

Just received another product from Ali,  the LHY SW-6.  I received it in less than a week.  

Same vendor , purchases were a month apart and both were received in a week. 

I bought Viborg and Choseal cables from AliExpress a few years ago, and everything went smoothly. The sellers also answered all my questions.

I also had a good experience with a Chinese supplier. I purchased,  Furutech Flagship a-36 cable from a supplier here in the States & was curious if the Chinese cable was the same. This was a little time consuming, but patience comes with age. The U.S. companies price was 10x the price of the Chinese cable. In the end, there was NO difference between the two cables.    

I too have had good experiences ordering from AliExpress.  No hiccups whatever  in payment, receipt or condition of the items.  My last order arrived in 8 days.

I have not tried to cancel an order right after I placed it.  

@danmar123 , bought the same cable from Aliexpress used in bi-amp setup. Top quality cable.

Also have returned couple of items, due to poor workmanship mainly, credits went through OK, no real trouble. For assembled power cables, I always IR test at 500V, check polarity and tightness of connections before installing. Assemblers often wire power cables wrong, but for the price, about a tenth of the real thing, well, a little bit of work, I don't mind.

Aliexpress do sell items like DACs they do state genuine, and this is reflected in the price. 99% of the time if the article is genuine, the price is higher than I can buy locally from an authorized distributor for any Fiio or Denefrips product for recent searches.

Cables are a low risk product, not much to go wrong really, but a DAC or Amplifier that you want to spend serious money on, is best spent at locally dwindling dealers.
