Whats the likely hood of receiving fake products if ordering from this site? I've had it happen myself with Amazon 3rd party sellers, however this site being in china makes me even more wary.

I've given up ; I never received anything I ordered from China.

  I ordered 11 products this year (albeit small ones) and got every single one of them.

I've ordered many things (small accessories, cellphone & tablet screens, a cheap Android tablet, etc) from both Aliexpress and Chinese stores on eBay and always got what was announced. The cellphone screen was damaged, and they sent me another one without having to ship the first back or show any proof of the damage. Besides the long shipping times (1-2 months to my door), it's been more reliable than shopping locally.

  1-2 months! That is reason enough for me to leave it alone. Is that common for all sellers or was it the item you ordered.

    Well, most items I've ordered get here in a month or slightly under, with a couple having arrived in 1.5-2 months. That said, I live in a country in the European periphery, so you might get better luck if you live in the US.

  Hah, this prompted me to look online for an Android-based iPod knock-off and was quickly greeted with this awsome deal: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/in-stock-2014-New-model-Lenovo-S7000-MTK6592-Tablet-PC-octa-Core-5-0-IPS-Android/1982303486.html http://www.aliexpress.com/item/in-stock-2014-New-model-Lenov... Then some googling revealed that there is no such device as a "Lenovo S7000 5.0 inch Tablet". Still aways to go, I think.

    Ahah, yeah, that happens. A good way to avoid it is to buy from sellers with plenty of feedback. That shop only has 20 reviews, and only one for that particular product, so I definitely would stay away.
