Yet another reason to avoid AliExpress, as if we need more.

Their website makes it damn near impossible to make a purchase (buy 3 more for this deal!!!), changes prices when you put something in the cart, charges multiple times for shipping and then provides inaccurate tracking info once something finally ships. Last time I had a month's delay because everything sat for more than a week in the U.S. after clearing customs.

Never again.

Trying to push you into the app I bet

They were quite successful pushing me - directly to ebay. I'd rather spend more than to ever deal with AliExpress and their BS again.
