I'm in - even with the risk to get fakes (they work too right?).

tinlong117, could you try to chat with this guy?
Would be cool to get more details.

As I said before I never used alibaba before (I'm ebay/aliexpress/dealextreme long time user however never used alibaba because of the customs form)
