Typically Shimano chains on Aliexpress are counterfeit, not worth the gamble

100% fakes

I'd say anrancee chains are legit, but prices are on pair with local shops, so there's not a good value there..

I gambled on 2 recently from anrancee. 22eur/pc and they are legit and a little cheaper than anything local. no regrets

Also bought a groupset from arancee and the chain seems legit, but the ones from OP's link are 100% fakes

I bought a PYC chain from Ali. Just installed on an ebike that i've done 150km on, fine so far.

The fake shimano chains on ali stretch really fast. I bought one, got a refund after proving it was counterfeit but still, don't waste your time.

chains in general from aliexpress are best avoided in my opinion. shimano ones are usually fake and the real ones are more expensive than locally bought, and then you have brands like VG sports which frankly suck. YBN chains are pretty good, but for the price you're better off just getting a sram chain locally.
