i'm very well aware of that but
define "your own risk"..everything I buy off AE (and that's alot) , i have zero intentions to ship back in case of an issue / change of mind. this is something to consider before making an order. also, I'm basically at "zero loss" with them, as on any issue i use PayPal dispute to get my money protected. Aliexpress CS itself is quite useless.
if you're referring to the "genuineness of products" - all the WiiM devices i received came in original nylon wrapped boxes.
we have a local importer for WiiM, everything is more expensive, he doesn't sell the Remote 2
