What is the warranty situation with Aliexpress. Anyone here has an experience to share?
I ordered something, didn't receive it, filed a claim, seller was like "yep just never arrived. Refund approved!" Gave me screenies from his end, posted and updated my claim, banned my account. No refund. No item. I'm sure my case isnt the norm, but I buy from them as little as reasonable. That is my experience with AliExpress after sale support.

Mine is a more fun situation. Ordered an item about $250. Aliexpress approved my refund and sent me a label. Only the label generated by their system was wrong and couldn't be processed by USPS. They would not accept the package. Tried talking over and over to Aliexpress and they were useless and then stopped talking to me.

Paypal was equally useless. Paypal claimed I needed written approval from Aliexpress saying they would refund me for the item and that I had sent it back. I was like, that's why I'm escalating to you, they are not talking to me and I can't send it back. Paypal found in sellers favor and refused appeal.

Long story short, finally sent the item back at my own cost so I could claim on my credit card and credit card approved.

I also cancelled my Paypal after decades of use. Will never use them again.

With that said, other returns to Aliexpress have processed fine and sent back with no issues. YMMV.

Just ordered the AD5X. First 3d printer, figured I would go all in.

Something odd if anyone has seen similar issues: Imhadnthe printer in my cart and then looked at pla filaments. There was a .99 cent deal for colored pla. I had to select one at a time, then select the aliexpress log, then select cart. I had to do this each time for every filament I picked to get them to all show up in the cart. I purchased the printer and then went back to the tab with the filaments and they all jumped to about $13 each. When I searched Ali the .99 cent deal was gone. It's like committing to the printer or using PayPal for it negated them.99 deal. Strange behavior. I'll just order a pack of colors or something but that was weird.

Quote from StrongHeat8009 :
If you have the money to spend on purge waste, I'd get the AD5X. It's also good for opposite material supports. If it's your first printer, I'd just spend the $140 to dip your toes on the 5M. It's totally worth it.
I second this. I have the AD5X from last Christmas. Like @StrongHeat8009 said it does have its quirks, needs to be tuned, but it's a good cheap printer. Notes:
• I've been using OrcaSlicer and not FlashForge's branded one.
• Heating element went out after 40 hours but FlashForger replaced it free and S&H free.
• Fan inside the enclosure in the back of the unit has always made a noise as if a bearing is going out.
• Got mine for $250 ish and been using the cheapest filament on AliExpress.
•Since it has IFS (can load up to 4 spools) it is nice when I have remnant filament I can load to print one project as it'll automatically goto the next spool, though you need to trick it.

The Adventurer 5M was my introduction printer to 3D printing and cannot recommend it enough. As a matter of fact, I just ordered one for my second home to print practical stuff to use around the house.

FYI, I posted earlier in this thread about ordering the Ad5x and then the .99 cent filament I wanted jumped to $13. I used a different device and found them again on Aliex. It's Anycubic pla. .99 until I login and then it jumps to $13. Maybe you all will have better luck or it's just a gimmick to look at their product. IDK.

It's kind of a 'flight club' kind of thing because it disrupts the revenue stream to this site, so don't expect a verbose answer. Discussion of things like this are only tolerated to a point, thus don't think the answers you get are rude.

***WARNING***

Very addictive hobby. I bought the 5M about a month ago with this sale... and bought the 5X a few weeks later with the same sale.

I now have piles of filament everywhere. And my dining room has turned into a mini workshop.

10/10 would get and just embrace!

Would you recommend skipping the 5M and just directly buy the 5X?
