Has anyone on the board, located in North America, had any issues ordering items from AliExpress?

I had ordered from them several times before the Pandemic. All orders were
delivered in about two weeks to about a month. With the current situation
the delivery times will probably be much longer.

Just bear in mind it's ebay, not amazon. So delivery reliability and speed depend entirely on the seller, not aliexpress itself.

Can confirm. The one order I made off AliExpress this year (some bathrobes) took about about two months to arrive.

Tracking information showed the seller shipped promptly too, though I think he might have sent it surface shipping which may have in part accounted for the transit time.  ::)

Thanks guys. I appreciate the input. I guess I'll give it a go. Shipping EVERYWHERE right now is hit and miss due the the pandemic. I just wanted to see how non-pandemic shipping was, and go from there.

Fingers crossed.
