AliExpress?

Anyone ordered from this website before? It's full of stuff from China mostly. Some are cheap, some are fake, and some are seemingly good deals. I placed an order few days ago for some wires that's marked 98% off for $1.38. Well, I know it is worth more than $100 fake or not. So, I placed the order just to give it a try and there isn't much for me to lose. Now, the seller is saying they made a mistake on the discount and wants me to either cancel my order or pay him $120 more.

What item is it for as I'd be interested to see if it's still listed?
I do have an account with them, but never pulled the trigger on anything. -

I might give it a try and see if I get the same answer,
but I would not pay him an additional $120. -
I would bring my business elsewhere. Price doesnt even sound right. A big BEWARE sign should have went off before id order those..

Sites like this one are kind of like going to the casino.

A quick look at the reviews, looks like buys are batting less than 50% success getting what they
order, if anything at all. I don't care how cheap they list it, I wouldn't order from aliexpress."The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others.

Anything audio, comes from either AS, Amazon, or the like.I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
