Sorry, I've been burned quite a bit lately with fake Winit numbers, false replacement claims, and other deceptive selling practices by Chinese sellers on eBay. This only started happening this year after years of dealing with them. I'm trying out AliExpress currently to see if things go any better.
Well I do agree that the selling practices are bad, because good chance you are getting it from a bulk sellers that don't care if some are bootleg or doesn't work, large supply chains are like that, I have gotten PSVSD from Alibaba Express that doesn't work so I hope you get stuff from AliExpress that work. Buying stuff from Chinese people overseas is usually a gamble that part I agree with you.
