Was only a few days ago a thread went through the cons to buying from Aliexpress:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1965188.0Wasn't you covered by some kind of trade assurance? Have you contacted Aliexpress to see if they can help?
I guess if hes shipped the parcel and you've received, then it's going to be difficult to claim.
Transaction is secured by Aliexpress, so i'm not worried, i just warn others. Many bitcointalk forum users buy miners on aliexpress, and this vendor is one of the biggest miners seller there.
So I inform that when you buy goods from this seller you can expect the old used inoperative equipment and the problem with return of goods....
No problem with claims there. You open dispute (you have 7 days after receive the order to do it, after it your money goes to the seller), submit evidence, aliexpress is an arbitrator on this case. Then they give You 7 days for send returned goods, and then seller got 25 days for confirm that he received it. This vendor is malicious and doesnt want to confirm receipt of the shipment although I have a confirmation from UPS which I have pasted as proof in the case. He can do that becouse he got 25 days for confirmation of receiving devices, no matter he received it week ago.
