I hope this isn't perceived as advertising.. I'm quite apprehensive about making this purchase and will absolutely update with my progress if/when the console arrives.

In the meantime, if anyone out there has any experience buying through AliExpress I would love to hear from you. This is my first purchase and I feel like it's a total gamble.

If this is somehow perceived as advertising, mods please delete immediately. I do not want to violate any rules. This community is too awesome to lose!

Report back on how it turns out.

I absolutely plan to report on how it turns out. So far, it sounds like I've made a mistake, but everyone here will know soon enough!

I've had good luck with ali so far. But it's helped to buy from reputable sellers. Some of them seem sketchy AF.
