Didn't realize Ifixit won't ship to China. Please accept my most humble apologies, I also didn't realize you were trying to buy from Ifixit, not Apple. Stupid mistake and misunderstanding on my part.

Frankly I would buy it from China on eBay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Micron-8GB-16GB...

RAM Type:PC4-19200 DDR4*Min. RAM Speed:2400 MHz

Details:*Apple reports that this model shipped standard with 8 GB of "2400 MHz DDR4 onboard memory." Thankfully, however, this is not entirely accurate.

Standard RAM:8 GBMaximum RAM:32 GB*

Details:*8 GB of RAM is standard and reported as onboard with an optional upgrade to 16 GB of RAM at the time of purchase for an extra US$200. However, in a pleasant surprise, this memory actually is not onboard and can be replaced or upgraded after the initial purchase of the Mac, it's just unnecessarily complicated. This model can "unofficially" support 32 GB of RAM.

Here’s OWCs RAM options for this machine. They may ship to China

So I’m trying to purchase with the link you sent me and just wondering if my 2017 21.5 3ghz iMac has four ram slots ? Because I want to upgrade to 32 gb but the only option on that link is four 8gb chips

by

So is the eBay link compatible with my model?

by

Yes it is compatible.

Sorry, iFixit does not ship to mainland China. Review this listing International Shipping.

The nearest would be either Hong Kong or Taiwan.

You might find a shipping forwarder you can leverage to get it into mainland China.

Oops, I didn't realize Ifixit doesn't ship to China. I must've been thinking of something else. Sorry!

I just read up on the shipping info for Ifixit, and you're right. No shipping to China mainland. I feel like an idiot, but hey, now I know.

Thank you Dan that’s exactly what I needed to know

Why would you buy stuff in iFixit in China? iFixit buys stuff from China then you buy stuff back from them?

Just buy parts from China directly, lose the middleman.

How can you answer a question with two more questions? I’ve searched for weeks to find one from a reputable source but as a foreigner it’s not as easy as you might assume

Easy, answer with rhetorical questions. If you are in China, find a Chinese friend to help you with online purchasing, saves a ton of money.
