Some of my friends did but the quality aint that good. A few orders were damaged during shipping

I've seen them pop-up every once in a while, even eBay have people selling modded Switch motherboards for around 100 bucks each.

Yeah cheap but theres no way to verify until you solder them. Risky investment i say

You cannot guarantee whether it was installed correctly. The person doing this must've not got any experience for all I know.

The issue here is that they have so many units, what they show is just stock photo, not the unit you are buying so you don't even know what chip is installed.

I'm sure they have plenty to offer judging by their shop icon.

Lmao OP is better off buying it off ebay, atleast that way you have some sort of insurance policy, Aliexpress doesn't give a fuck.

You honestly may have a better chance with eBay, or even Reddit in the trade communities. I nailed a fully-kitted modded OLED Switch for $420. Basically new, with a glass screen protector. They're actually getting cheaper.

These are mostly consoles that probably had problems like dead eMMC or other issues and were revived. In that case they are most likely banned.
