The Aliexpress seller scam saga

i usually buy from aliexpress shells for replacement in japanese 3ds xl consoles which i convert to European ones , recently a store showed up with 12 positive ratings in Germany selling shells a bit lower than china and set at shipment from germany, usually i avoid new stores but as i have three 3ds xl to replace shells (mostly a hobby that gives me a bit of earnings) i bought 9 shells of various designs. In the next day the store was gone and i had 95euro order with clearly no delivery shot. I immediately opened a dispute but due to their system i had to wait for 3,5 days for seller to reply which he did not, they ve send me a support message to wait for more days for order delivery, therefore i was forced to open a support ticket reporting to them that store is no more in aliexpress and it is a scam. it took me another 3 days to have them refund me.

but you did get refunded in the end, so AliExpress's fraud protection capabilities worked. I've had more frauds through Amazon then through Ali

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
