Buying Prusa I3 on ​​aliexpress with delivery to the Russian Federation. Underwater rocks?

Question

Do it yourself

I want to order Prusa I3 (and 2 PLA plastics) - on aliexpress. The theme is green. What are the pitfalls? What should a seller pay attention to?
Or maybe someone took it there already - from a particular seller?

Answer 1

Virtually none.
I would recommend taking Anet A6, in fact the same Prusa i3 from a well-known Chinese manufacturer, it is easy to assemble and prints tolerably out of the box. Ideal for a first printer.
Delivered from a warehouse in Russia via SDEK in 3 days. The broken piece was sent 5 days later.
Easily improve print quality by adding belt tensioners and frame brace

Answer 2

With a non-zero but low probability - customs.
At best, they will eat the brain and demand money, at worst, they will demand a lot of money.
ps remember about the shipping cost?
