开云体育The advantage of buying from a domestic reseller is that you have a return avenue in the event of a problem.? You may or may not need that of course.? But if you do, then you are able to speak to someone who's native language is the same as yours, and the costs for sending thing thing back for exchange by post are reasonable and the paperwork things like HS codes and customs clearance, etc, are absent. For those reasons I tend to put these purchases into two categories - if getting one that is partially inop or DOA would result in disposal instead of wanting to remedy it, then I'll buy from Aliexpress and save the money.? But if it's going to be something I will rely on or that is too expensive to toss if it's a problem, then I'll want to buy from a domestic seller.
