PSPower I have never had an issue with them , current prices may be unpredictable with tariffs and shipment being affected by the Oange twt in the Oval office.

Where is the scam ?
If you are unhappy with the price rise then shop elsewhere.
So you say price has risen, surely this is down to the market and supply and demand.
One expects any price rise of late is to off set lack of sales due to recent trde tariiff rates.

Is it cheaper to buy direct from PSPower or from AliExpress ? I have noticed differences, same with ebay vs manufacturer's web site.

I've noticed sometimes items are cheaper on AliExpress than direct from a seller !

There will be differing charges if comparing to AliExp shop.

It's the same with anything Peter, I have bought astronomy eyepieces form AliExp at nearly 50% cheaper then the manufacturers webpage , also said manufacturer had two differing web pages /two differing shops . Both selling the same item for totally differing margins prices.

Still not a scam , just pricng policy of two different shops on the internet .
In the end you got what you wanted by and they price matched the product/s.

AliExp has to make money so will make a charge for anyone wanting to have acces to their market place, just as ebay does. For trade sellers ebay can charge 20% to list an item so it is cheaper to use the sellers own shop if they have one.

They did say ''only 5 pcs in stock', so perhaps they bring up their price on an item when their stock levels are running low. I think they call this ' dynamic pricing' (or 'differential pricing'?). (e.g Ryanair airline tickets and Oasis concert tickets?) I agree its not popular with some customers. Anyhow, I have ordered six times from pswpower without issue so far.
Don't look back in anger. (Oasis)

Yes @Sturmey, supply and demand alluded to also in my #3.

Never had a problem with PSW Power - buyer beware and all that.
