Aliexpress itself is safe. Considering the no of orders there and no negative feedback it should be ok. Make sure you contact seller with any questions you have BEFORE buying.
I've been scammed on Aliexpress before. I emailed the seller before buying to confirm exactly what I was getting, but the seller sent me something else entirely (a cheaper/worse product).
And their dispute process is a joke. The seller acknowledged sending me something different to what I had ordered, but I still lost the case and lost my money. How can that happen? In the end, I had to charge back via credit card. The whole thing was a huge waste of time and effort.
Bought my Gateway from realhotstuff.com (they also sell Sky3DS) and got it a few days latter just paying normal shipping. They are based in the US and aside from old/cheap banners there checkout process is not as shady as a lot of other sites.
(Just my 2 cents)
Yep. I've been buying from them since GBA carts. Recently, I got a couple gateways, a DSTwo, and a Sky3DS red. I emailed them to ask when the blue button edition was coming in (because the red edition sucks) and they told me to just RMA the red one and they would send me a blue one. He shipped it out today.

That's a great deal, Nice of them to do that for you.. great company. I was also thinking about getting a Sky 3ds "Blue" card also. I have Gateway but playing on the newest version right now seems like a better deal.
