I buy a lot of electronics (and reading glasses) from AliExpress. I had the occasional malfunction but probably not even one in 30-50. Great NEMA motors too and 18650 batteries among other stuff like the Orange Pi, or mega boards.
A word of caution, there is lot of really cheap stuff that’s quite low quality, and you can’t post reviews under 4 stars (they won’t show up) so you have to check the numbers sold and read the feedback.
Edit: it also sometimes take 3-4 weeks to get the stuff. It’s like a little surprise sometimes.

Man, you’re playing with fire by buying 18650s from a vendor that doesn’t test their batches.
You are right, but where would you buy sure batteries and how can you be sure they are?
Illumn and imrbatteries are two trusted vendors for both the flashlight and vaping communities. They test each batch to ensure they’re authentic.
