has anyone buy a complete bike from china seller?

i imagine the shipping would be not cost effective,b but....

i found a 26" touring bike with Deore comp and Reynold 520, for half price of a Surly LHT.

seller said Aliexpress Std Ship is only $250.

I thought shipping would cost much more than that.

has anyone bought a complete bike from China seller?

do u have to arrange pickup at the dock warehouse? or does it deliver to yur home front door?

p.s. i ve bought small items from Aliexp before, but never sumting this big n heavy.
