I have had loads of stuff from China via alibaba etc and the stuff is generally good. MX bits, levers, brake disks, master cylinders, radiators, CB radios and whatnot.
I have had a fair few sets of those "pazzo" levers and they are great cheap levers, never had any problems but they do look dated nowadays.
I think that, when buying stuff from there, you have to go in with your eyes wide open. A lot of people expect to buy and fit and in my experience that is not always the case, you might need to (or rather want to) replace certain things (non stainless bolts or whatever), better connectors, or even make slight alterations to get them where you want them to be.
I went the whole hog with levers:
