Free returns sometimes means you will be fully refunded for the purchase price, but you pay for the return shipping.
I wouldn't want to ship an e-bike back to China.

I buy all kinds of crap on AliExpress, but just small stuff so I doesn't bother me to throw it out if it's junk.
I bought a $4 watch to attach to my handlebars that broke and fell apart when I tried to set the time, so I bought a High Quality $15 watch that's got Japanese movement, a light, and it's waterproof !!!
The most expensive thing I bought was a pair of inverted forks for $290 but I did Hours of research.
The box came with two sides of the box almost Completely Covered with Chinese postage stamps.
I guess it takes a lot of stamps for $78 worth of shipping?
They only bothered to cancel ¼ of the stamps at the post office.
Once I go over about $200 on the price of an item, I have to pay duty as well.
I think I paid $30-$40 duty?

No reviews for that item but the seller had reviews... All negative.
Free returns is just that and one allowed per order. In the US we ship it local... I'm guessing to be sold on Amazon.
Bought my BBS02B on Ali for $850. All went well and they sent a decent battery. Samsung cells and the charger and BMS had multiple safety features...
No arcing no matter how you connected it.
No output on either until connected
USB port and OFF switch on the battery

Yep. Seller reviews, product reviews, Q&A section. I look at all of it before I buy anything on Aliexpress. The product descriptions can be very misleading. Do your homework and you’ll have less of a chance to have a bad experience.

I bought a sextant to install on my handlebars, along with my compass and watch, but I never got it installed,..
I figured that if I ever get lost then my battery dies, I can always figure out where I am.
I gotta stop shopping when I'm wasted.

Sadly I got scammed on aliexpress by the same scammers who were briefly on Amazon. There are legit sellers on both, but as others have said, make sure the seller has several reviews and actual pics from customers. That goes for amazon too. Got my money back and getting my bike via fed ex tomorrow from real sellers.
