Buy a used screen or Alliexpress?

What’s people’s opinion here regarding buying a used screen assembly off eBay etc. versus Alliexpress?

This would be in particular for a MBP 13” 2017 - model A1706. My screen has dustgate, the laptop was given to me for free, for the type of use I use it for I’m having a hard time justifying and trashing it.

The price between a used and new screen assembly appears to be pretty much a wash.. just wondering what I can expect.
