Perhaps there are not enough people left who have not heard about Aliexpress. The largest Internet site where you can find almost everything – from toothpicks to an airplane wing. Of course, there are also astronomical products there, and even taking into account the delivery, the cost of this or that accessory is less than what it costs in local stores. In this topic, I will try to make a list of interesting astronomical products, useful for amateur astronomers – both beginner and experienced. On aliexpress, I mainly buy small things – eyepieces, mounting plates, lights, adapter rings and much more. When buying, try to choose China Post Registered Air Mail delivery, or ePacket, even if it is paid – such packages are correctly tracked and reach faster.
Warning: I do not bear responsibility for the defective goods and can not vouch for sellers. Carefully read the reviews for the product and choose a seller with a good reputation. But even if an unqualified product arrives or with defects, for these cases there is a “dispute” with the seller (“disput”), during which you can partially or even fully return the money for goods of inadequate quality. It is advisable to remove the unpacking of the parcel on video, so that you can then make a complaint. I also recommend specifying in the comments to the order that the seller check the goods before shipping (for example, “Please check the goods before shipping. There should be no defects”.)
Enjoy the shopping!

Fixes firmly and securely. I ordered this myself for mounting the QHY5III178m camera, as there is the slope of the sensor plane with a conventional adapter.

Lightweight, compact, metal tripod Q999. I use it with a Sky-Watcher Adventurer mount and lenses with a focal length of up to 50 mm. For a 135 mm focus, preferably a tripod is stronger, but if you take a hike, where every gram of weight is important, then this one will do. Suitable also for small binoculars and spotting scopes. One of the legs is unscrewed and can work as a monopod. Includes a bag and a good ball head. Recommend!

Carbon version (Q999C) https://alli.pub/6u8r0z?erid=2SDnjbrv5Hz
Pocket prism spectroscope. Inexpensive plastic, but works well for its price. Suitable for testing astronomical filters. The case outside is better to glue the black opaque film, so that there is no parasitic flare. The gap is narrow (this is good). There is no enlightenment (and not really needed). Easy to understand, can be upgraded.
I bought it from this seller with the delivery of an e-packet, I got it from China in 16 days.

High-quality and wide-angle (60 °) eyepiece – works great even with fast telescopes. Pleasant pupil removal (14 mm), metal body, excellent blackening is a logical replacement for the short focus plossls. Recommend!

Filter for astrophotography Svbony CLS clip EOS. It works only with Canon mirror cameras (APS-C format). Does not work with Canon EF-S lenses. Excellent suppresses urban light pollution, highlighting the nebula. When using modified cameras and lens optics, it is desirable to use an external IR-cut filter.
