What is the least shitty shit store? Never had a good experience with any of the shops such as, wish, aliexpress and the rest of em. But which one of them is considered the better one, or more likely to actually arrive with the correct item? Is etsy considered better than the rest? Are there any of these “low priced” stores that actually have some sort of guarantee to deliver what is purchased? Let me know your experiences and tips!

    I bought some stuff from Ali express. Mixed results. Bought a video adapter for my wife’s car so an aftermarket radio could use the factory backup cam. Worked great. Bought a ‘billet’ camshaft for a Suzuki. Was obvious it was cast, because they didn’t bother to align the two halves together they were off 1/8". Left a bad review about it, they deleted the entire part listing, then re-posted it to hide my review, then blocked me as a customer.

      Support from AliExpress is quite good. They don’t take any bullshit from their sellers and often refund at least a partial amount of your purchase.

      I think I got 30% back once because the wrong color was delivered.

      The biggest issue is that they tend to fake delivery time by switching around old tracking numbers. If you want something quick, I really wouldn’t recommend it.
