Lots of negative comments, I wouldn't give them my credit card number.

Aliexpress is a Chinese listing site. Like Craigslist, Ebay or any other site there are legitimate sellers and there are scammers
Never buy anything unless you can pay with credit cards or Paypal - so you are protected if you don't get what you order. If they want a bank transfer, Moneygram, Western Union, Greendot Moneypak or anything else, forget it. They are trying to steal your money

Yes, I have bought things from there numerous times. It might take awhile to ship because it's usually coming from China, but I have received everything I have ever ordered from the site.
But i have only bought things for $20 and under. most things on that site are cheap. What are buying that's $189? Maybe a link to the product also?
