buying heat sinks from alibaba is it worth?

[nogod_]

How much does a top qualitly 130mm x 70mm pin sink cost?

How much does a cxb3590 cost thru mouser? what about thru cutter? is the mouser one better quality?

Where do all these heatsinks come from anyway?

you get what you pay for, there are no bargains.

When started this post I added also specifications. The reason I did that is because I wanted to saw them to the people who knows about heatsinks more than I do.we all know that the price is lower than other sellers.we don't have to stick with it any more. If anybody thinks this heatsinks are crap I would like to explain to me the reason ? Is the diamentions ? ( which I doubt ) is the aluminum alloy crap? Btw is al1070.

Are you buying direct or through an Alibaba account? Alibaba has trade assurance and other ways to pay. I have ordered from Jerry @ Lang Teng recently. My first impression of the man is that he is quick to answer emails before your order and a lot slower after the order. Also they promised a shipping date and missed that by 3 weeks. This does not mean he is crooked. Their ways of doing things defers from the west. If you are prepared to wait and have a calm manner dealing with the Chinese is worth it in my opinion. Customer service is not included in their cheap prices. If you go into it knowing that it will keep your blood pressure down. Bare in mind the Chinese were involved in commerce when Europeans were still chasing each other around with sticks.
I would definitely recommend purchasing through Alibaba's trade assurance. This will cover your money until you have received your goods. If you are a company and they think you will pursue any misdealings within their civil court system they will comply with your contract (eventually). In Chinese civil proceedings your can sue for loss of revenue including your projected retail sales value. This tends to motivate Chinese businesses to toe the line. As a one off individual purchase Alibaba is your safest route.

Cheers,
Will

Hello ty for the info guys I am also from holland, and I dont know how netherfly has done it but when I buy stuff from china(heavy stuff) I always bear mind that I need to pay import taxes And Vat. Thats like 30% price increase.

I prefer tme.eu passive heatsinks from mechatronix for 10€ and they can handle 75w. Free shipping super fast and no surpises.

Hey Will, je nederlands is helemaal zo slecht nog niet!
Ik woon ongeveer op 40 minuten rijden van Hilversum
Bedankt, ik ga altijd helemaal los op een hobby, kan het niet laten

I ordered and received everything without any customs meddling.
I order lots of electronics from china, my other hobby is flying FPV (drones).
This is of course always a gamble, but the chinese are very crafty in making fake declarations, this works 90% of the time (in my experience).

Just last week i received my order from Jerry from Kingbrite, and he added a declaration with a total value of about 15 dowra worked like a charm.
