I should have noted this was also my first time ordering from them so I’d no prior experience. Also, I’m now being bombarded with emails showing me what ’goes with what I purchased’. I really wanted to try those cables, too. I also can only guess all the shipping updates I got were just blowing smoke. No idea what happened.
AliExpress order issues
With all the comments about how good the 'Nordost' cables from AliExpress were, I decided to order some back in April. Got confirmation, and the usual location status updates- shipped, left country of origin, in receiving country, with local carrier, out for delivery...then crickets. No cables, no updates, nothing. Then about a week after the last update I get a "There was a problem delivering your order". that's it. No explanation, no what to do now, no refund coming, no anything. That was the final communication. I had to open a dispute with my CC company to get a refund. Has this or similar happen to anyone else?
